This doesn't work for me. I see it in the App Store but it says not available for my system and redirects me to the Tahoe update.

As a retro/analog guy I was expecting to be in agreement with you, but after an image search I think I actually prefer the SNES. The SF looks like a tractor feed printer while the SNES probably looked fun and futuristic for its time.

When tested against AIs such as DeepSeek V3, Qwen 3, and Phi-4, CatAttack increased the odds of incorrect answers by as much as 700%, depending on the model. And “even when CatAttack does not result in the reasoning model generating an incorrect answer, on average, our method successfully doubles the length of the response at least 16% of the times leading to significant slowdowns and increase in costs,” the team writes.

I think it's the green checkmark and the green square that are confusing. Like why is there a check on the first green square and not the second one? Maybe it would be cleaner without any checkmark at all? Anyway, nice game, I shared it with my sister who also wants to solve more of them!

Highly enjoyable (after I finally read the definitions of "neighbor" and "to the right/left")! Did you write a program that can automatically generate these?? I'll definitely try this again. Note, the emoji graphic in "share" might be buggy? I'm seeing one green checkmark, one green square, and four red squares..

Many see a value in "natural" objects that is absent in those engineered by man. There is a raw energy and story behind it. Would you be just as awe-struck by a magnificent waterfall built by engineers flowing atop beautiful factory-produced rocks as one created by geologic forces over millennia?
