About

Sparkpath

Features
Read full description

Sparkpath is a calm circuit puzzle. Every tile on the grid holds a piece of wire. Tap a tile and it turns a quarter turn. When every end meets its neighbour, the whole board takes current and the level is done. One tile is the source. Wires connected to it light up, so you read your progress off the board itself instead of a status line. The further the light spreads, the closer you are. ZEN RULES No timer. No lives. No losing. No ads. Your moves are counted, but the only thing that depends on them is the star: finish in par without hints and you get three. THREE MODES • Journey — 10 chapters, 100 levels. The board grows slowly, from 3×3 to 13×7, and every level takes more turns than the one before it. • Daily — one puzzle a day, the same board for everyone. Streak and calendar. • Endless — pick one of four sizes and play as long as you like. ENTIRELY ON YOUR DEVICE No account. No sign-up. No analytics. No network connection at all — the game works exactly the same in airplane mode. Your progress lives on your phone and nowhere else. ACCESSIBILITY The game is playable end to end with VoiceOver: every tile announces its position, which directions it connects and whether it carries current. A live wire is drawn thicker as well as brighter, so players who find colour hard to separate do not need a special mode. Dynamic Type and Reduce Motion are supported. Light and dark themes. iPhone and iPad. Twelve languages.

Verdict

The call

Apple Knight's advantage is chart position (#209 vs unranked) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 18.0). On price, update cadence and device support there is nothing between them.
