Solving the Seating Chaos: The Design Behind Picky Capys

They are cute. They are chill. But they are incredibly PICKY.

At The Artists Company, we wanted to create a puzzle experience that moved away from the “trial and error” trap of modern mobile games. We wanted something that rewarded pure deduction—a Sudoku for the TikTok generation, wrapped in the world’s most lovable animal: the Capybara.

Welcome to Picky Capys, the addictive logic puzzle game that combines the relaxation of seat-filling with the challenge of deep deduction.

The “Plan & Verify” Loop: Why Logic Wins

Most mobile games hold your hand. They give you instant feedback, flashing red or green the moment you make a move. We took a different approach. In Picky Capys, your brain is the only engine.

1. Observe: Read the constraints. Does the Chef need to be near the kitchen? Does the Tourist refuse to sit next to the window?
2. Plan: Drag and drop characters onto the grid. There is no hand-holding—you must commit to your logic.
3. Verify: Only when you press the VERIFY button does the constraint engine check your seating chart.
4. Fix: Mistakes aren’t failures; they are data points. Adjust your strategy and try again.

A Global Seating Adventure

We didn’t just want one grid. We wanted a world. Travel across diverse environments, each bringing its own spatial challenges:

• Transit: School Buses, Airplanes, and Subways.
• Dining: Sushi Trains, Diners, and Medieval Banquets.
• Leisure: Cinemas, Onsens, and even Spaceships.

30+ Unique Personalities

From the Astronaut to the Pirate, the Barista to the Bride, every Capybara you unlock brings a new set of rules. This isn’t just a skin; it’s a mechanic. As you progress, the intersection of these rules creates emergent complexity that will challenge even seasoned puzzle veterans.

Why We Built This

In an era of hyper-casual games designed to be played while half-distracted, Picky Capys is an invitation to focus. It’s part of our mission at The Artists Company to build digital experiences that are high-quality, aesthetically pleasing, and intellectually stimulating.
