Read full description

Slide the tiles to connect one unbroken path from start to goal. This is not the usual sliding puzzle where you sort numbers into order. Every tile carries a fragment of a line. Push them into the empty square, rebuild the route in your head, and the whole path lights up the moment it connects. 50 levels, 3x3 to 6x6. Features - Clean, paper-like board with smooth sliding animation - 50 levels across 4 chapters (3x3 / 4x4 / 5x5) - Free play in any board size, 3x3 to 6x6 - Three-star rating based on your move count - Move counter, three-star target, and a best record for every level - Undo one move, or restart the level anytime - Haptic feedback on every tile - Particle celebration when a level is cleared - Plays fully offline How to play 1. Drag a tile that sits next to the empty square into that square 2. Connect the line from the bolt (start) to the checkered flag (goal) 3. Connected tiles glow, so you always see how far the path reaches 4. Fewer moves means more stars A quiet way to focus, or a short break between things. Slide the tiles and connect the path.

Two puzzle games in one calm, minimal package. Rotate pipes until every line connects, or trace a single unbroken path through every dot. No timers, no lives, no ads — just you and the next satisfying click. CLASSIC — CONNECT THE PIPES Tap a tile to rotate it, and link every circle to its square. Straights, corners, T-junctions and long diagonal runs weave through each other in ways that look impossible right up until the last piece turns and the whole board lights up. 700 levels, starting gentle and growing into genuinely tricky networks. DRAW — ONE LINE, EVERY DOT Begin at 1, finish on the last number, and cover every cell on the board in one continuous stroke. Obstacles block your way. The numbers must be reached in order. Take a wrong turn and the path won't close — but you can always trace back and find another route. 30 levels of pure path-finding. WHY YOU'LL STAY • No timers, no lives, no failing — think for as long as you like • Unlimited hints for when a board simply won't budge • Plays fully offline, anywhere, no account needed • Minimal line art in a warm, dark palette that's easy on the eyes • Your progress saves automatically, level by level ONE PURCHASE, PLAY FOREVER Everything is free for your first 3 days. After that, a single one-time purchase unlocks both modes and all 730 levels for good — no subscription, no ads, no coins, no energy meters, no waiting. Questions or ideas?
