Thanks for the detailed playthrough. You're right that Hint (0) can read as no hints left; it counts hints used. I've noted that wording, the repeated pending-clue descriptions, and making swap and Put back easier to discover. Glad the compact layout and keyboard controls worked well.

Thanks for trying it again. Glad the step-by-step tutorial made the first moves clearer!

The update is live now. Selecting a placed building shows what to do next. Our browser checks didn't reproduce the failed move, so I'm keeping that part open. If it happens again, please let me know your browser and device. Thanks for the detailed report.

The update is live now. Tutorial is on the main screen beside the neighborhood plan, and it guides your first three moves before you finish on your own. You can switch back to today's puzzle with your progress saved. Thanks again for helping us spot where the introduction was overwhelming.

Okay, that's actually good feedback. Thank you so much. Working on this now. 

I really appreciate this feedback, my friend. I think you're absolutely right. I'm working on making it better now. Take a look in a few hours - take a look. What do you think?

I’m testing NookGrid, a new independent daily puzzle. You arrange nine neighborhood places on a 3×3 grid so all the clues fit. It is free in the browser, with hints, undo, and a result you can share.

I’d especially appreciate feedback on three things:

1. Did the instructions make the first move clear?

2. Did any clue have more than one reasonable interpretation?

3. Did the controls get in your way, especially on a phone?

If you stop before finishing, where you stopped would be useful too. This is an early experiment, so honest criticism is welcome.
