The Developer
About
A solo developer who loves a good puzzle
My name is Eitan Arbel. I'm a software developer based in Israel with over a decade of experience building professional applications. Eitanium isn't a startup or a studio project — it's a passion project I've been working on because I genuinely love logic puzzles and wanted to build the best possible version of one for mobile.
I believe the best games are the ones that respect your time, your intelligence, and your patience. No artificial difficulty, no dark patterns, no manipulative monetization. Just a good puzzle, done right.
From a 2018 hobby project to a full rebuild
Built the first version of Eitanium as a personal project — a logic deduction puzzle game for Android, written in Delphi/FireMonkey. It worked. The puzzle logic was solid. But it was rough around the edges, and the toolchain made it painful to improve.
Rebuilt entirely in Flutter — cleaner architecture, modern UI, proper theming, localization-ready, and built with the full feature set I always wanted: Daily Puzzles, Free Play mode, share-as-image, streak tracking, and more. The puzzle logic is faithfully ported and the known bugs from the original are fixed.
The app is nearly ready. When it launches, it will be free to download, with optional in-app purchases for Gold (used for hints) and a "Remove Ads" option. No subscriptions, no pay-to-win, no pressure.
Fair games, built with respect for players
The mobile game industry has a lot of bad habits. Lives systems that make you wait. Timers that create artificial urgency. Ads that interrupt at the worst possible moment. Achievements that make you feel bad for not playing every single day.
I'm building games that deliberately avoid all of that. Eitanium has no lives, no timers, no countdown clocks. Quitting a puzzle costs one Gold coin — because that's fair — but there's no punishment for taking a break. You don't lose your streak if you miss a day. You're in control.
Every puzzle has exactly one solution. You can always get there with pure deduction — no guessing required.
No timers, no lives, no daily streaks required. Play when you want, as long as you want.
No account. No cloud sync. No tracking. Everything stays on your phone.
Free to play. Ads are unobtrusive. Purchases are for convenience, never for progress.
