Just Arrows
Read full descriptionHide full description
Just Arrows is a calm logic puzzle about finding the one clear path. Every arrow has a trailing line that may turn several times. Tap an arrow only when the space ahead of its tip is clear; its tail follows the same path out of the board. Each escape opens a route for another arrow. Clear every line to finish. PLAY AT YOUR OWN PACE • A 200-level campaign that grows from short introductions to dense tangles. • A bank of 1,000 deterministic puzzles across nine difficulty tiers. • Every puzzle is independently verified to have one solution order. • Three mistakes are allowed; a fourth blocked tap restarts the current puzzle. • Soft haptics and a restrained Chinese-painting palette of xuan paper, hua-qing blue and ochre. QUIET BY DESIGN No ads. No timer. No daily streak. No account. The game works offline and does not collect personal data. The first 20 completed puzzles are free; one optional non-consumable purchase unlocks the complete game forever. Part of the Just Play series—classic logic games rebuilt with a calm voice.
