Could you build this?

Partial The app shell and UI are straightforward, but 120+ puzzle types need generators that guarantee unique solutions and solvers that produce human-readable reasoning for hints. That algorithmic work is hard for vibe coding alone.

What it would actually take: Use a Flutter, React Native, or native mobile front end with a shared puzzle engine. The hard part is a per-type generator and logic solver that verifies uniqueness and can explain each deduction step. Expect months of work per puzzle family, along with testing and mobile polish.
