## What is HALKA?

Tap to rotate. Connect the lines. Make room before the board fills.

HALKA is a puzzle about turning straight and elbow pieces into closed loops on a 6 × 6 board. A new piece lands every turn, and closing a loop holds it back. Each turn, rotate a piece or hold and drag it to any cell to move it or swap it with another. See where it will arrive and which way it faces, then plan your next turn.

• Closed loops clear away. Every other piece stays in place.
• Larger loops earn more: each loop scores its piece count squared.
• Take your time in free play and build your personal best.
• Play the daily board in 20 turns. Today's puzzle is free, refreshes at UTC midnight, and can be retried as often as you like. Your best unassisted score for each day stays on your device.
• Unlock the previous 30 daily boards with Premium.
• Learn through three interactive lessons. Play in 12 languages with VoiceOver labels and reduced-motion options.
• Two basic looks are free. Four exclusive themes are included with Premium.

If the board fills, select a 3 × 3 area to rescue your run. Rescues do not extend the daily puzzle's 20-turn limit. The first rescue can use a rewarded ad when available, or Premium. Stone rescues cost 10, 20, then 30 stones, with up to three rescues per run. Rescues do not award points. Assisted runs do not update your standard best.

The core game is free and includes ads and optional in-app purchases. Weekly or yearly auto-renewing Premium subscriptions remove ads between runs and include the first ad-free rescue each run, the daily archive, and four exclusive themes. Stone bundles are sold separately; Premium includes no stones. Manage or cancel subscriptions in your Apple account settings. New subscribers get a 1-week free trial on either plan; it renews automatically unless canceled at least 24 hours before the trial ends.

Your progress and records are stored on this device. With iCloud turned on, your stone wallet syncs across your devices. No game account is required. Core gameplay works offline; purchases and ads require a connection.
