Can you clear the board and reveal the hidden shape? Sky Shapes is a relaxing puzzle game with two ways to play. In Arrow Escape, tap arrows to send them flying off the grid, but only when the way is clear. In Number Link, draw lines to connect matching numbers until every square is filled. Solve either one to reveal a colorful shape hidden in the clouds. MADE FOR IPHONE DUO, IPAD AND MAC Play on the iPhone Duo cover screen, then unfold for a wide two-column layout that keeps up with every fold. On iPad, play in portrait or landscape, side by side with other apps or in Stage Manager. On a Mac, resize the window any way you like. Your level carries on through every change. ARROW ESCAPE Each board is a grid full of arrows, every one pointing a different way. Tap an arrow to fire it off the grid in the direction it points — but only if the lane ahead is clear. Misjudge it and the blocked arrow bounces back, costing you a life. Three lives per level, so read the grid and choose your taps carefully. Toggle the laser sight to project where each arrow will go, and tap for a hint when you need a gentle nudge to a safe move. NUMBER LINK Drag to connect each pair of matching numbers with a line. Lines can't cross, and every square has to be filled, so each connection has to leave room for the others. There are no lives to lose here: take your time, undo freely, and use a hint to draw one correct line when you're stuck. Hints are shared with Arrow Escape, and you can switch modes any time from the main menu. REVEAL THE HIDDEN SHAPE As you clear the board, a cloudy silhouette slowly sharpens into a vivid, colorful shape. Finish the puzzle to reveal it completely and move on to the next. Three ways to play, in whichever puzzle style you like: ZEN JOURNEY A relaxing campaign with thousands of levels to play at your own pace. Themed chapters, progressively trickier puzzles, and a shape to reveal at every turn. No clock, no pressure — just you and the sky. DAILY RIDDLE A fresh riddle every day. Clear a few quick puzzles and each one reveals a picture — and every picture is a clue pointing at the same hidden answer. Put the clues together, spell the answer out of the letter bank, and earn a gold star on your riddle calendar. Stuck on the last letter? Take a hint. Missed a day? Go back and solve it any time. Then share your solve with friends and come back tomorrow for the next one. DAILY TIME TRIALS For when you want the competition. A fresh timed arrow maze every day — race the clock and climb the global leaderboard. Tap ahead to queue up your arrows and clear the maze at full speed for the best rank. Turn on optional daily reminders so you never miss a day.
