Hidden Cats: Cozy Logic Puzzle

Hidden Cats is a cozy logic puzzle game with cats. Seven cats are hiding on the board and you can't see a single one — but every number on the grid tells you honestly how many cats sit in the neighbouring squares. Find them all without guessing once.

A logic puzzle and brain teaser for people who like to think, not tap at random. If you enjoy Queens, sudoku, nonograms or minesweeper, you're home. Plays offline, and relaxes you instead of rushing you.

THE RULES — there are only four
• Exactly one cat in every row
• Exactly one cat in every column
• Exactly one cat in every coloured region
• Cats never sit next to each other — not even diagonally

A number in a cell shows how many cats are in the eight squares around it. That is enough to deduce the entire board, down to the last square.

EVERY LEVEL IS SOLVABLE BY PURE LOGIC Levels aren't hand-drawn. A generator builds them and a solver checks each one. Only puzzles with a single solution and a guess-free path to it ever reach you. You will never hit a dead end where the only move left is a coin flip.

FOUR DIFFICULTIES
• Easy — plenty of clues, automatic crosses, two free hints
• Medium — fewer clues, lighter assistance
• Hard — only what's necessary
• Expert — the minimal set of numbers. Not one to spare. Bring patience

WHAT'S INSIDE
• Smart hints that explain the reasoning instead of just revealing a square
• Scan — scout a single cell when you're genuinely stuck
• Separate progress for each difficulty
• Weekly leaderboard
• Three languages: English, Russian, Spanish
• One-handed play, works offline, no sign-up

NO RUSH No timers. No streaks that hurt to lose. No ads bursting in mid-move. Warm colours, soft sounds, hand-drawn cats. A relaxing logic puzzle you come back to in the evening, not one that demands your attention every hour.

Make some tea and go find the cats.
