Giraffe skyline

Fill the savanna with giraffes so every meerkat on the lookout sees just right.

How to play

• Each square holds one giraffe. On a board of 5, heights go from 1 to 5.
• Every row and every column has one giraffe of each height.
• A meerkat at the edge counts the giraffes it can see along its line.
• Taller giraffes hide the shorter ones behind them.
• Some giraffes start in place. Their number is underlined and they stay put.
• A wrong height costs one of your three hearts. Relaxed mode in settings has no hearts.
• Finish with no hearts lost for three stars. Changing your own giraffes is free. Hints lower the stars you can get.

Controls

• Tap a square, then tap a height on the number pad.
• Turn on Notes to pencil in the heights you are still deciding between.
• With a keyboard, the arrow keys move, a number places a height, Shift and a number writes a note, and Backspace clears.
• Tap a meerkat to light up the line it watches.

Tips

• A meerkat that sees 1 has the tallest giraffe right in front of it.
• A meerkat that sees them all watches the heights climb one by one.
• The bigger the count, the further the tallest giraffe stands from that meerkat.

Questions

How do I play Giraffe skyline?

Every row and column holds one giraffe of each height. The meerkats around the edge say how many giraffes they can see, and taller giraffes hide shorter ones.

Is it like skyscrapers puzzles?

Yes. It is the classic skyscrapers logic puzzle with giraffes instead of towers and meerkats counting from the edge.

Is there a new puzzle every day?

Yes. A new daily skyline arrives at midnight, gentle on Monday and trickier towards Saturday, plus levels to play at your own pace.
