Quick steps to get started
How to Play
Place dogs — Double-tap a tile to place a dog. Each row, column, and colored region needs exactly one.
No touching — Dogs can never touch — not even diagonally. Illegal placements are rejected.
Mark exclusions — Single-tap or swipe across empty tiles to exclude them with an X as you deduce.
Use hints — Tap the lightbulb hint for 50 coins — it reveals one forced dog and updates each move.
Win the duel — Solve more boards than your rival before the five-minute timer ends.
What's it all about?
Head-to-head sudoku-style puzzle duel with a cartoon dog theme. You and a rival race to solve logic grids before a five-minute timer runs out. Each puzzle is a grid divided into colored regions. Your job is to place exactly one dog in every row, every column, and every colored region — while making sure no two dogs touch, not even diagonally. Use deduction, mark impossible tiles with X’s, and spend coins on hints when you’re stuck. Win more boards than your rival to climb the Pup Ladder, earn coins and rank points, and unlock cosmetics, daily tasks, season pass rewards, and more. Matches feel online, but everything runs locally — there’s no real backend.
