Every grid is a new puzzle. Can you light them all up? Kablink is back. Originally released over 15 years ago as "Cablink", this tile-rotation puzzle game has been rebuilt for modern iOS — and now runs on iPhone and iPad. The goal is simple: connect every tile back to the power source. Tap to rotate, think ahead, and watch the grid come alive as connections snap into place. EASY TO PICK UP, HARD TO PUT DOWN Each puzzle is a randomized grid of tiles with connectors on their edges. Rotate them until every tile links back to the power source. It sounds simple, but larger grids and advanced options will test even experienced puzzle solvers. ENDLESS VARIETY - Square or hexagonal grids - Sizes from 4x4 up to 15x15 - Edge wrap mode where opposite sides connect - Frozen mode that limits movable tiles to neighbors of powered tiles - Blackout mode that hides unpowered tiles until you connect them - Combine modes for a custom challenge CHALLENGE FRIENDS Every puzzle has a unique shareable code. Send it to a friend and see who can solve the same puzzle in fewer moves. NO ADS. NO INTERNET REQUIRED. Kablink works completely offline. No accounts, no sign-ups, no interruptions. Just puzzles.
