HamiLoop vs Tendril Puzzles

HamiLoop: Draw one loop. Pass through every square on the grid exactly once. That's the whole idea behind HamiLoop, and it's harder than it sounds. What looks like a simple rule turns into a real puzzle once the grid grows, and figuring out the right path can take real thought. Grid sizes vary a lot, so difficulty varies with them. Some puzzles are solved in a couple of moments, others take much longer and require some careful planning. With 150,000 preloaded levels, you can pick a size and difficulty that suits your mood, and a new difficult puzzle is added every day if you're after something tougher. There are no timers and no countdowns anywhere in the app, so every puzzle can be worked through at your own pace. Each puzzle is presented with clean, colorful visuals, though the colors are purely decorative and don't affect the solving itself. If you like tackling more than one thing at a time, you can keep several levels open in parallel, so an easier puzzle is always there when you want a break from a harder one. Alongside the daily challenge, an extra hard puzzle is released once a week for players looking for something tougher still. The core idea of the game is inspired by Hamiltonian cycles, a well known concept from graph theory, giving the puzzle a solid mathematical foundation beneath its simple rule.

Tendril is a calm logic-puzzle game about drawing lines. Every number tells you how many cells its line covers. Drag out from a number — or from any empty cell — and watch the board fill. When every clue is satisfied and every cell is covered, the board blooms. TWO GAMES IN ONE • Lines — each number grows one straight line. Easy to learn, deep to master. • Branches — numbers grow arms in several directions at once. The same counting, a whole different puzzle. From a gentle first board to Extreme packs on boards up to 17×17, there is always a next step. A DAILY RITUAL Two fresh puzzles every day, one of each kind. Keep a streak, compare times on the daily board, and come back tomorrow. Play a week in a row and you earn a rest day, so a missed day does not undo the month behind it — and every seventh day in a row pays a little extra for the garden. A GARDEN THAT COMES ALIVE Solving earns Water and Seeds. Spend them in your own small meadow: plant flowers, bushes and trees, grow them stage by stage, and arrange everything the way you like. Grow the right things and animals move in — twelve of them, from a butterfly and a frog to a fox, an owl and a bear. Tap one and it hides. The meadow follows the seasons, visitors pass through, and a journal tells you who lives here and who might come next. FRIENDS AND LEADERBOARDS Daily, weekly and all-time boards, with your own neighbourhood always in view. Follow friends with a link, challenge them to beat your time on a board you just solved, leave a reaction on a good solve, and visit their gardens. SOMETHING TO AIM FOR Awards for streaks, for perfect days and flawless runs, for whole packs finished without a reveal, for Extreme boards and for a garden full of life — each one showing how close you are, and remembering the day you earned it. HELP THAT WAITS TO BE ASKED A hint asks what you need: check the board for mistakes and erase them in one step, or be shown the next move the board proves. Zoom in on any board, and every line shows which number it belongs to.
