Tap an arrow with a clear path and it fires off the board. Block its path and… well, you'll see. RINGS — 50 orbits. NEW. No grid, no tapping — grab a ring and TURN it. Arrows ride the rings; the moment a flight path comes clear, it glows. Light the whole formation and launch it in one spiral volley. Locked rings, pearls, gear-linked pairs that turn together, rim gates, and multi-wave launches stand between you and three stars — every level's par is provably the minimum number of turns. CLASSIC — 100 hidden shapes. Every level assembles itself out of glowing arrows, then it's yours to take apart. Long winding snakes, tangled bends, packed grids — clear them all and the silhouette joins your collection. You never know what shape is next. ISOMETRIC — 100 districts. The thinking person's mode: place your pieces, set the firing order, then execute and watch the whole sequence chain off the board in one satisfying run. Mirrors, splitters and frozen beams along the way. DAILY CHALLENGE. A new silhouette every day, a replayable archive of every day you missed, and a monthly trophy for your cabinet. - 250 levels, every one machine-verified solvable - Two full design languages: soft pastel and electric neon - A collection gallery that fills as you clear shapes - Customisable themes, effects and laser sounds - Quick to learn, satisfying to master — no timers, no pressure
