DESCRIPTIONS
============

One-liner
---------
Cozy cat kakuro: solve number crosswords, bring the whole clowder
home, and keep going with 2,000+ more puzzles.


Short (about 60 words)
----------------------
Catkuro is kakuro, the number crossword, turned into a journey where
the digits are cats: nine of them, right there on the keypad. Start
with four, bring five more home through Act 1, then fill their home
with cozy places and favorite things. Finish the story and Free Play
opens with 2,000+ more puzzles and a daily challenge. No ad ever
interrupts a solve.


Long (about 150 words)
----------------------
Catkuro is a cross-sum puzzle game for iOS and Android. Each run of
cells has to add up to the number in its clue, using the digits 1 to 9
with no repeats, so every square is settled by reasoning rather than
guessing. In Catkuro the digits are cats: nine of them, each with a
name, a color and a personality, right there on the keypad.

The game is a twenty-five-chapter journey in five storybook Acts. You
start with four feline friends, bring five more home through Act 1,
then fill their home with cozy places and favorite things. The first
board is a handful of squares and four digits, and the story adds a
digit here and a longer run there until grids that looked impossible
on day one feel like the natural next step.

Finish the story and all four Free Play tiers open at once, with
2,000+ more puzzles plus a daily challenge. The complete puzzle
journey works offline, wherever you are, with no account.


KEY FEATURES
============

* A twenty-five-chapter story in five illustrated Acts, with a paw trail
  that inks in as you solve and a reward at the end of every chapter.

* Nine cats on the keypad. You start with four already adopted. Act 1
  brings the other five home. Acts 2 through 5 add cozy places,
  furniture, and favorite belongings.

* Starts tiny and grows with you. No prior kakuro knowledge needed; the
  story teaches the game one small board at a time.

* 2,000+ more puzzles in Free Play. All four tiers open at once when
  you finish the story, plus a daily challenge drawn from its own
  dedicated set.

* Every grid has exactly one solution, reachable by logic alone. Verified
  before it ships: no dead ends and never a point where you have to guess.

* No ad interrupts your solve. Optional rewarded help appears only when
  the player requests and confirms it: reveal the selected cell, or
  fill the grid with pencil marks. Deduction hints stay free.

* Pencilmarks in five colors, a combination row, unlimited undo, and
  hints that explain the next deduction rather than filling in the
  answer.

* Play every puzzle offline. No account or sign-up required. Made for
  phones and tablets, with a layout for each.
