Casual Puzzle Nook

WHAT’S INSIDE

• Daily Ritual Hub – streak card, high-score callouts, and one-tap launches for every mode.
• Smart Auto-Save – Sudoku and Solitaire capture every move, so you can resume from the couch, commute, or bedtime wind-down.
• Celebration Sheets – finish a puzzle to see a cheerful modal with your score, “Play Again,” and “Back Home” actions.
• Built-in guides – each game includes a tappable “?” sheet with quick how-to-play tips.

SUDOKU

• Four handcrafted difficulties (Easy, Normal, Hard, Extreme) with unique board generators tailored for gentle warmups through true brain burners.
• Tap to toggle Enter vs. Notes mode; jot pencil marks, then let the game auto-clear conflicting notes whenever you lock in a digit.
• Intelligent highlighting shows matching numbers, row/column/box relationships, and subtle success glows when you complete a unit.
• Wrong entries trigger a soft shake, add to your mistake counter, and subtract from the score so accuracy matters.
• Rich stat bar tracks time, wrong attempts, score, and personal high score; the number keypad shows remaining counts and disables completed digits.

SOLITAIRE

• Classic 7-column Klondike with a tactile stock, waste, and four foundations rendered in cozy card textures.
• Tap the stock to draw, flip the waste to foundations or tableau, and tap empty stock to recycle the pile automatically.
• Peek badges reveal the value/suit of face-up cards peeking from underneath so you can plan deeper stacks.
• Auto-play logic moves legal singles or descending alternating stacks to foundations or other columns when you tap; unlimited Undo lets you rewind every snapshot.
• Time, move count, and score update in real time, flash green when you beat your high score, and the entire game auto-saves/resumes between sessions.

MINESWEEPER

• Consistent 14×15 boards tuned for each difficulty: 10 (Easy), 18 (Normal), 28 (Hard), or 40 (Extreme) cherry-blossom “mines.”
• Dedicated Reveal and Flag buttons plus tile selection outlines make touch play precise, while a live flag counter keeps you honest.
• Timer, move-based scoring, and persistent high score motivate faster clears; selected tiles glow so you always know what’s targeted.
• Flood-fill reveal instantly opens safe fields, and a “New Board” button shuffles in seconds for another run.
• Long-form help sheet recaps rules and tips, and every win surfaces the celebration sheet with Play Again / Back Home choices.

COMFORT CONTROLS

• Theme switcher for System, Light, or Dark mode, all powered by a handcrafted palette that keeps cards, tiles, and buttons readable in any lighting.
• Ambient soundscapes with independent volume: Gentle Rain, Ocean Waves, Cosmic Synth, Fireplace Crackling and many more
• Audio can be turned off and keeps playing softly while you puzzle.
• Works great offline on iPhone and iPad—no accounts, sign-ins, or streams required.

Find your calm, chase your streak, and let Casual Puzzle Nook be the little ritual that brightens every spare minute.
