About

Longbara

Features
Read full description

Guide a sleepy capybara across the board and fill every single tile in one unbroken path. Simple to start, quietly demanding by the time you hit the double digits. HOW IT PLAYS Swipe and the capybara slides until something stops it. Every tile it crosses is filled. Clear the board by covering all of them — no tile left behind, no retracing your steps. One wrong slide and you are boxed in, so think before you move. WHY IT FEELS DIFFERENT • No timers. No lives. No energy bars. Think as long as you like. • Every level is solvable. Always. Each one is checked before you ever see it. • Difficulty grows honestly — wider boards, more forks, longer solutions. • Stuck? Free hints every day, and never a wall you have to pay to pass. WHAT'S INSIDE • Thousands of levels, and more the further you go • Mandarins to collect on hidden blocks, for players who want more than the win • Ten hand-picked colour worlds that change as you progress • Gentle procedural music, and a capybara that celebrates with you PLAYS ANYWHERE No account. No sign-up. No cloud save to worry about. The whole game runs on your device, so it works on a plane, on the underground, or with the data switched off. Longbara is free, supported by ads. Watch one only if you want extra hints — never to keep playing. A quiet puzzle for coffee breaks, commutes, and the ten minutes before sleep.
