The playing field is divided into colored areas, each housing exactly one raccoon. They keep their distance: you won’t find any neighbors in the same row, column, or diagonally adjacent cells.
Each board is carefully prepared and verified by a solver, ensuring that at any stage of the game, there’s a cell that’s definitely occupied by a raccoon or definitely empty. If you’re stuck, it means there’s still a deduction to be made.
Use crosses as notes — place as many as you like, erase them, highlight entire rows with a single swipe. These notes are free and won’t be penalized. The only mistake in the game is placing a raccoon in the wrong spot, which costs you a life but reveals the true state of that cell.
There are 140 levels spread across fourteen chapters, with board sizes ranging from 4x4 to 11x11. Completing levels quickly allows you to progress faster, potentially advancing several levels at once in lightning rounds.
How to play
To place a cross, just tap once; to put a raccoon, tap twice. The same single tap removes a cross, and the same double tap retrieves the raccoon.
If you hold and drag, you can draw a path or mark an area with crosses. If you start from a cell that already has a cross, dragging will clear them. Raccoons are not affected by dragging.
You have three lives, and only a mistakenly placed raccoon will cost you one. The cell will immediately turn into a cross, so losing a life gives you information. There's no undo option, but you can reset the board if you want to start over.
The hint button for raccoons provides assistance. The first hint shows the required move in full, while the second explains the underlying technique, rather than just giving the answer.
