She describes her new app as “an art-making game.” Quiltuduko replaces the game’s customary numbers with drawings. “[W]hen you complete one of Ringgold’s Quiltuduko puzzles, you find that you’ve created an artwork. In addition to the brain workout, each game now also comes with an aesthetic payoff.” Read more and see images in this interview.
