Untangle is a comfortable puzzle game about clearing a tangled board one line at a time. Tap a line and its head leads the way off the edge, the rest following the path the head takes. Send every line off without crossing a line that is still there. That is the whole rule. The levels get denser, and the order you choose is the puzzle. Three difficulties: Easy, Relaxed, and Hard, each with 3,000 levels. Relaxed is the default. Hard keeps your best times on your device, so the only person you are measured against is you. Fourteen themes, four of them free from first launch. A theme refreshes the palette and the art. Skins are a smaller change: swap the look of the lines, keep the theme. Twenty-five original tracks play on a shuffle. No accounts, no ads, no analytics, and it plays offline. Untangle collects nothing about you. A missed exit costs a heart, hearts come back on their own while you are away, and Unlimited Lives is available as a pass that does not renew or as a subscription, if you would rather not wait. Adjustable cell size, separate music and effects volume, a reduce-audio setting, and haptics you can switch off. Made for iPhone and iPad, by Ocular Braid.
