TRAILS is a cozy puzzle game in which you guide sand ships across a crumbling desert to reach isolated outposts. Draw paths for each ship across the treacherous sands, planning carefully to avoid collisions and ensure each ship reaches its goal. Chart Your Course Plan your route by drawing paths across the desert grid. All sand ships must follow their trails without visiting the same space twice - and without crashing into one another. With every route you sketch, you're constructing a web of paths across the dunes. Supply the Outposts Scattered across the wasteland, remote villages rely on the convoy for vital cargo. To complete each level you'll need to supply every outpost. Pick up the right goods and bring them safely to their destination. Careful coordination and efficient routing are the key to your success. Juggle Resources Each sand ship can carry one item at a time, whether its crucial cargo, a key to unlock a new route or a rare power-up, improving the ship's capabilities. Managing pickups, handoffs and avoiding unwanted items is essential to reaching your goal. Hazards of the Wasteland The dunes are your home, but they are not without danger. Collapsing terrain, narrow passages, gaping chasms, ancient traps and errant drones can block your path or derail your journey. Foresight and careful coordination will keep the convoy on track. Extra Challenges For those who seek an even greater test, optional levels and hidden challenges offer more complex maps, tighter constraints and push the puzzle mechanics to their limits. Use all you have learned to take on the toughest challenges TRAILS has to offer. Can you chart the perfect paths and navigate all trials of the desert?
