Panda Nook: Logic Puzzle

Panda Nook is a colourful logic game starring Panda, an original red panda looking for a nook of their own. Place one panda in every row, every column, and every colourful nook. Pandas need space, so no two may touch, not even at the corners. A star battle style logic puzzle. The rules take a minute to learn. The later boards can take much longer to untangle. 1000 VERIFIED PUZZLES Every board is built backwards from a complete arrangement, then checked by a separate solver: the nooks are connected and there is exactly one solution. A REAL DIFFICULTY CURVE Begin with a playable 4×4 tutorial that teaches each rule and gesture on the board, then hands it to you to finish. A few 4×4 warm-ups follow, 5×5 starts at level 6, and bigger boards arrive gradually, all the way to 9×9. No timer, no move limit, no random blocked moves: just deeper logic. DAILY NOOK A new daily puzzle for everyone each UTC day, open once you have solved ten levels. Solve consecutive days to grow your streak and earn a score bonus. FAST, NATURAL CONTROLS Tap once to mark an impossible cell with an X. Keep your finger down and drag to mark several cells in one smooth sweep, or start on an X to erase a trail. Double-tap when you have found Panda's home. Incorrect placements are shown immediately, say which rule they break, and cost one of three tries. If all three are used up, watch one optional rewarded video to keep the board or restart it for free. Every normal move can still be changed, and notes mode lets you try an idea in pencil without risking a try. MADE TO STAY READABLE Each nook has a strong outline and its own small shape texture as well as a colour. The board does not rely on colour alone. Cells have spoken row, column, nook, mark, and conflict labels for screen readers, and controls use vector symbols rather than decorative emoji. THREE KINDS OF HELP Find Panda places one correct red panda. Mark Xs fills the row, column and neighbouring cells implied by a panda already on the board. Hint explains the next move in plain words rather than making it for you. Each button says AD when it plays a rewarded video, and gives its help only after the video completes. Boosters you already hold, from the daily gift, the forest ranks or berries, play no video. A lapsed daily run can be brought back with a rewarded video too. Free Restart is always beside the rewarded revive. THE ADVERTS, IN FULL A banner sits at the foot of the board screen and nowhere else: not on the home screen, not on the trail and not in the shop. Its strip is part of the layout whether or not an advert fills it, so the board never moves under a finger, and a new player sees nothing in it until a level is finished or a few minutes have passed. A short full-screen advert may play when you leave a finished level, never in the middle of one: none before your third finished level, then at most one every second level, 90 seconds apart at the least and ten a session at the most. Optional in-app purchases buy berries, which buy boosters, or take away the banner and the advert between levels together. Nothing is locked behind them: all 1000 puzzles are free, boosters also come from the daily gift and the forest ranks, and buying anything never takes away a video you chose to watch. OFFLINE BY DESIGN All 1000 puzzles are included in the app. Campaign play, the daily selection, progress, sound, and vibration settings work without an account or connection. Progress is kept on the device. If you are signed in to Google Play Games, it is also backed up to your own Play Games account so it survives a new phone. The app sends a small set of anonymous gameplay events so we can measure retention and find broken progression. Its identifier is random and generated inside this app; it is not an advertising ID. It never asks for your name, email, location, contacts, photos, or anything you type. Follow the panda trail and give every panda a nook.
