Field notes
The catalog pairs each game with practical control instructions: Sudoku has difficulty levels and pencil notes, while Five Letters offers a new word daily plus practice. Several descriptions account for both keyboard and touch input, and some mention saved progress. The Dungeon entry lists multiple phone-control options, including a joystick-style pad and tap-to-move.
