Ten calm games in five areas

Each day Spry picks three short games for you, about ten minutes in all, from memory games, spot-the-difference, word games, number games and logic puzzles. Play them in whatever order you like. In your first 14 days, or with Spry Premium, you can play any game, any time. More games are on the way.

  • Memory

    Light Trail

    Tiles light up one after another, each with its own note. Watch, then tap them back in the same order.

  • Memory

    Card Pairs

    Look at the cards, then turn them over two at a time to find the matching pairs.

  • Attention

    Odd One Out

    Find the picture that is different. Every difference is plain to see, even on the biggest boards.

  • Attention

    Follow the Cup

    Watch the ball go under a cup, follow that cup as the cups swap places, then tap it. Choosing is never timed.

  • Language

    Word Builder

    Make as many words as you like from a wheel of letters. No empty boxes to fill, and you can stop whenever you are ready.

  • Language

    Missing Letters

    Tap the letters that fill the gaps to finish each word. Any real word that fits counts.

  • Maths

    Quick Sums

    Pick the answer from four big buttons, from simple adding to times tables. There is no clock to beat.

  • Maths

    What Comes Next

    Find the pattern in a row of numbers and pick the one that comes next. Every answer ends with the rule laid out.

  • Logic

    Mini Sudoku

    A small sudoku with no sums needed: fill the grid so every row, column and box holds each number once.

  • Logic

    Slide Puzzle

    Tap a tile next to the gap to slide it, until the tiles are back in order. No dragging needed.

Made for older eyes and hands

Spry was made with people over 45 in mind, and especially seniors who want a calm puzzle with their morning cup of tea, without tiny text, ads or a clock racing them. Anyone over 18 who likes a gentle daily challenge is welcome.

  • Large text, with an Extra large setting for when you want it bigger still.
  • Big buttons that are easy to press. Everything works with a simple tap: no swiping or dragging.
  • A gentle pace. Quick answers can earn a bonus, but there is no countdown to beat.
  • A clear Back button on every screen, and every game can be paused.
  • Light and dark themes, and sounds you can turn down or off.
  • No streaks to lose, and no nagging if you miss a day.
