About

Network Puzzle

Read full description

Connect every computer to the server by rotating cables and network equipment. Network Puzzle is a tile-rotation logic game about building working networks. Follow colored connections, bring every computer and laptop online, and find the solution before time runs out. Boards are densely connected and built around exactly one logical solution. Every placed cable and piece of network equipment is required to bring the full network online—there are no decorative dead ends or interchangeable solutions. Arcade mode keeps the flow fast: cables can branch through T-shaped tiles, and later levels add multiple network colors and insulated crossovers. Real mode follows stricter network rules: cables never branch on their own. Switches, routers, firewalls, subnets, and VLANs control how devices communicate. Reproducible procedurally generated puzzles provide a new layout at every level. Earn campaign points in separate weekly Arcade and Real leagues, follow your live position, and compete for promotion. Arcade and Real mode each have their own Daily Challenge. The current-month calendar keeps every elapsed day playable until the month ends, so you can play daily or catch up later. Future days remain locked, and every player receives the same stable date-based puzzle for their mode. Network Puzzle contains banner and occasional automatic full-screen ads. Optional rewarded ads can add time, restore lives, or unlock another Daily attempt. A one-time optional purchase permanently removes banners and automatic full-screen ads; optional rewarded ads remain available, and purchases can be restored.
