RiddleWick: Cozy Puzzles

A. Naumov

About this game

RiddleWick is a calm daily ritual of logic, words and numbers — twenty-five cozy puzzle games gathered in one quiet, candlelit place.

No noise, no pressure, no endless pop-ups. Just a warm little corner to slow down, think, and unwind one puzzle at a time.

TWENTY-FIVE PUZZLES, ONE COZY PLACE
• Sudoku — the timeless classic, beautifully simple
• Nonogram — paint-by-logic picture grids
• Word Search — find words across gentle themes
• Solitaire — classic Klondike, dealt fresh each day
• FreeCell — the classic card patience, every deal solvable
• Fend — a card duel inspired by the Russian game Durak: beat it, throw in, or take
• Harbor — find the boats hidden in a foggy harbour before your opponent finds yours
• Douse — keep the drifting embers off the village roofs, one lantern-lit drop at a time
• Mahjong — tile-matching solitaire with a hand-drawn cozy tileset
• Jigsaw — fifteen hand-illustrated scenes, from 25 to 110 pieces
• Sparks — catch drifting fireflies with a single stroke
• Inlay — fit pieces into a 9×9 grid and clear lines, rows and boxes
• Quills — tap an arrow with a clear path and watch it fly away
• 2048 — slide and merge the numbers
• Crowns — one crown per row, column and colour, none touching
• Plus Wisps, Drip, Embers, Melt, Phials, Connect, Rungs, Spans, Tally and Echo

NEW IN THIS UPDATE
• Fend — a card duel for one to five opponents, inspired by the Russian card game Durak. Beat the card played at you, throw in one of a rank already on the table, or take the pile.
• Three opponents to choose from — Gentle, Lively and Blazing — and a duel of the day: the same deal and the same opponent for everyone.
• Harbor — a foggy-harbour take on the naval guessing game. Light a lantern over a cell: a ripple is open water, a warm glow is a boat. Light a whole boat and it is walked to the pier.
• Set your own boats by hand or let them settle themselves, pick one of three opponents — Gentle, Lively and Blazing — and take on a duel of the day: the same harbour for everyone.
• Douse — a cozy arcade take on the classic falling-embers defense. A bonfire burns beyond the hill and the wind carries embers onto the village roofs. Tap the sky and the nearest well sends up a drop; where it lands it opens into a ring of spray.
• Aim ahead of an ember, not at it — the drop takes its time. Ten waves, about three minutes, and three winds to choose from: Gentle, Lively and Blazing — or Endless night, where the waves just keep coming.
• The opponents in Fend and Harbor are the folk of the hearth — Soot, Moth, Kettle, Pip and Hazel — and each of them plays their own way.

What’s new

Three new games.

Fend — a card duel in the spirit of Durak: beat the card played at you, throw in one of the same rank, or take the pile.

Harbor — find the boats hidden in a foggy harbour before your opponent finds yours.

Douse — embers drift onto the village roofs; tap the sky and a well sends up a drop that opens into a ring of spray.

Three opponents or three winds to choose from. Your rivals now have faces and names — Soot, Moth, Kettle, Pip and Hazel. Two new Mahjong boards, too.
