Hippopodoku

Hippopodoku — A Relaxing Puzzle Game with Adorable Hippos
Hippopodoku is a cozy and relaxing puzzle game that blends Sudoku-style logic with Minesweeper-like deduction. With a cast of charming little hippos, it turns traditional Sudoku into something fun and lighthearted instead of dry and hardcore. The interface is clean and simple, perfect for a quick brain break during your commute or before bed.
How to Play
The board is divided into multiple colored zones, and each zone can hold only 1 hippo.
Each row and column can also contain only 1 hippo.
Hippos cannot be adjacent to each other, including diagonally.
Double-tap a cell to place a hippo, and single-tap to mark an X and rule out impossible spots.
You have only 3 chances per level, so think carefully before placing each hippo.
