About Patches Game

Patches Game is made by Coffee Break (coffeebreak.gg), the studio that builds free browser puzzle sites including Queens, Tango and Zip. The puzzle engine, the solver that checks every daily and catalog board, and the pages on this site are our own work. The optional sign-in that keeps your streak and stats across devices is a free Coffee Break account.

A new daily board publishes every day at 00:00 UTC, and every past daily stays playable in the archive. Beyond the daily, the curated catalog holds 800 solver-verified boards, 200 per grid size across 6×6, 7×7, 8×8, and 10×10, named and sorted by size and difficulty. Unlimited Mode deals fresh boards on demand, all checked by the same solver. Every daily and catalog board has exactly one solution.
