## What is River Escape?

A cop, a thief, a merchant, a child, a dog and a cat are all waiting on the same riverbank. There is only one small boat, and not everyone can be trusted alone with everyone else. Who goes first? Who comes back? One careless trip, and the thief slips away or the cat runs off with the fish.

RIVER ESCAPE is a classic river crossing logic puzzle with a comic, hand-drawn look. Tap or drag characters into the boat, press Go, and get the whole crew safely to the far bank.

KNOW THE RULES
• Seats: the boat holds two or three at most, and it never crosses empty
• Rower: someone with the oar badge must be on board to row
• Guard: a thief left with civilians needs a cop there to watch him
• Numbers: wherever there are cops, thieves must not outnumber them
• Dog and cat: they fight unless the child is around
• Cat and fish: the cat steals the merchant's fish unless the child is around

100 LEVELS IN 20 CHAPTERS
• Start with a single crossing and work up to tricky multi-trip plans
• New rules and new rowers arrive over the first chapters, then the puzzles mix them into harder plans
• Each rule is shown on the play screen, with a card that explains it

THINK, TRY, UNDO
• Break a rule and the game tells you exactly which one, and where
• Undo any move or restart the level at any time
• Earn up to three stars by matching the fewest possible crossings

HELP WHEN YOU ARE STUCK
• Earn coins by beating your best star count, then spend 5 coins on a hint
• Watch an optional ad for a hint, or wait for the free hint after 90 seconds without progress
• A hint shows your next move; a win with a hint earns at most two stars

PLAY YOUR WAY
• Full Arabic and English
• Play offline, with no account needed
• Sound and haptics you can switch on or off

River Escape is free to play. It shows ads, including an occasional ad after a win and optional ads for hints, and offers a one-time Remove Ads purchase that also makes hints instant.
