What's new
The big changes, newest first. Small fixes and tuning are left out.
Guides · 21 October 2026
- New Guides section with pictures: the tutorial written out step by step, how to solve a puzzle, Latin, Double and Scramble, the levels and worlds, the quilt behind the game, and answers to common questions. The text under the game is now always visible, too. The guides are in English for now.
Move to another device · 20 October 2026
- Settings has a new "Your game" section: make a game code on one device and load it on another, and your streak, levels and stars come with you. Nothing is sent anywhere.
Streak brains by length · 19 October 2026
- Your streak brain now turns bronze after a week, silver after a month, gold after a season (90 days) and platinum after a year.
The quilt's own colours · 15 October 2026
- The Quilt marks and the logo now match the colours of the real quilt, City Limits, more closely. Burgundy and navy patches have their own coloured stitches so they never look like red or black.
Accessibility marks · 15 October 2026
- If colours are hard to tell apart, turn on Accessibility marks from the welcome card or Settings. Single boards up to 9×9 play in patterns, and everything else gives each mark a small pip at its own place on a clock: one pip or two, so neighbours never look alike.
- On Doubles the ring and the hole can have different pip shades (white on the ring, black in the hole by default). You can also choose a grey scale or pips alone.
Opens without a signal · 14 October 2026
- Quiltoku is now kept on your device, so it opens even with no connection, and a small bar tells you when a new version is ready to load.
Quiltoku in French · 13 October 2026
- The whole game and the site pages are now available in French. Choose Language in Settings; phones set to French open in French by default.
Help starts with the big picture · 13 October 2026
- Help now opens on a Start page: this week's difficulty ladder, the three ways to play, and the tutorial buttons.
More Double in the daily · from 11 October 2026
- Tuesday is now always a small 4×4 Double, a friendly way into the game's best idea.
- Wednesday leans on Double too, with 6×6 and 4×4 boards, plus a 4×4 Latin.
- The first time a day brings a Double, Latin or Scramble board, a short note explains it.
The quilt gets sewn · 10 October 2026
- Fixed squares now come stitched, following each shape's own outline. Your guesses are loose patches.
- Solve a puzzle and the whole quilt is sewn, stitch by stitch like a sewing machine, then the confetti. The picture you share is sewn too.
- Stitching is its own switch in Settings, on by default, and it works with any of the marks (Colour, Shapes, Patterns or Quilt), so you can turn the stitches off while you play.
Your streak is a brain · 10 October 2026
- The brain grows with the hardest day in your streak, from Monday's small brain to Sunday's big one, and turns bronze, silver and gold as a streak runs into a second week.
- The calendar shows your streak and your best streak ever, and tapping the brain explains how it works.
- When a streak ends, the brain shatters the next time you open the game.
Easier to fix a mistake · 9 to 10 October 2026
- Bookmark sits in the row of helpers. Come back to it and the first guess you made after it flashes, so you don't make the same mistake twice.
- Undo and Reset moved into the same row, and a small ⓘ explains every button.
- Tap one of your own guesses with nothing selected and it clears. A finished colour can be tapped again too.
- Help now has Tutorial and Stats tabs, and the result of a puzzle appears right under the board.
Levels · 6 to 9 October 2026
- 2,000 levels across twenty worlds, with new ideas arriving one at a time and a tougher test at the end of every stage.
- Replay any finished level to beat your stars. Your first 3★ on a level also saves you a reveal.
- Saved reveals (from sharing, a 7-day streak or a first 3★) now let you pick the square to reveal.
- New players get a short welcome and a training run.
Sharing · 6 to 9 October 2026
- The picture you share is your real board, turned and with the marks swapped, so it never gives away the answer to the person you send it to.
- On a computer you can send it by Gmail or email straight from the share panel.
About the quilt · 6 October 2026
- The About page now tells the story of City Limits, the quilt that inspired the game.
