What Kind of Game Is Meowdoku?
The developer calls it Sudoku meets Minesweeper. There are no numbers to fill in, though. Every level is a single logic question: where does each cat go?
If you know LinkedIn's Queens or one-star Star Battle puzzles, you already know the rules. Meowdoku uses the same ones with cats instead of crowns or stars, so every technique in our tips works in those games too.
Can You Play Meowdoku Online?
There is no official browser version. Oakever Games' website links only to the App Store and Google Play.
- Websites such as meowdoku.gg, meowdoku.app, meowdoku.org and meowdoku.online are fan-made clones. Most say on the page that they are not affiliated with Oakever Games. Their levels are their own, so level numbers and counts don't match the app.
- The Meowdoku on Yandex Games is published by a different developer ("DRA"), not Oakever.
- Google Play has copycat apps with the same name. The real one is by Oakever Games, package
com.oakever.meowdoku. - On a computer: Macs with Apple silicon can install the iPhone version from the Mac App Store. On Windows you need an Android emulator, which Oakever doesn't officially support.
Is There a Meowdoku Mod APK?
People search for a "Meowdoku mod" mostly to get rid of ads or get unlimited hints. Mod APKs come from third-party sites, not from Oakever. They can carry malware, they don't get updates, and they can break your progress. We don't link to them.
Safer ways to see fewer ads, and what Premium costs, are on the ads & Premium page. For unlimited free hints, use our solver: it explains each step and runs in your browser.
