Description

Short: Six calm logic puzzles and a daily one: Sudoku, Bridges, Ships, Lines, Stars and Trail.

Long: Puzzle Picnic brings six logic puzzles together in one calm, cheerful app. There is a new daily puzzle every day, the same one for every player, and every solve earns stickers for an album and a picnic blanket you lay out yourself. Every puzzle has exactly one solution, so you never have to guess, and there is never an ad while you solve.

The six puzzles

  • Sudoku: fill every row, column and box with the digits 1 to 9.
  • Bridges (Hashi): join the numbered islands with bridges until every island has as many as its number and all of them connect.
  • Ships (Bimaru, battleship solitaire): the counts beside each row and column point to a hidden fleet.
  • Lines: tap an arrowed line and it slides out of the shape. Free every line, in the right order. Our own puzzle.
  • Stars (Star Battle): one star in every row, column and coloured region, and stars never touch.
  • Trail: draw one line from 1 through every square, passing the numbers in order.

What makes it different

  • Never an ad during a puzzle. Ads only come between puzzles, and Premium removes them.
  • One price, once. No subscription, no coins to buy.
  • Fair puzzles: a solver checks that each one has exactly one solution, so logic always gets you there.
  • A daily puzzle that is the same for everyone, so friends can compare times or challenge each other with a link.
  • Works offline and needs no account. It also runs in the browser, and there is a free widget that puts today's puzzle on any website.

The studio

Puzzle Picnic is made by Maestro Software Development B.V., a one-person studio in the Netherlands. One developer, Martijn, builds and runs the app, the puzzles and the website.
