About

Harbor Chaos

Read full description

Harbor Chaos is a sliding-block puzzle set in a calm, low-poly harbor. The basin is gridlocked with ships, and your red boat is stuck. Slide the other vessels out of the way, open a lane, and guide the red ship to the open sea. Every ship moves only along its own axis — boats facing across the water slide left and right, boats facing along it slide up and down. Nothing rotates, nothing falls, nothing is placed. It is pure, calm spatial logic: read the jam, find the order of moves, and untangle it. 100 LEVELS, STEADILY HARDER A difficulty curve that starts gentle and keeps climbing — from a two-move intro to deep eighteen-move tangles. Every single level is verified by a solver to have a clean, fair solution, so you are never stuck on something broken. EARN YOUR STARS Each level has a known best solution. Solve it in the fewest moves for three stars, stay close for two. Replay any level to chase a perfect run. BUILT TO BE CALM - A hand-painted low-poly harbor and a clean, uncluttered interface - No timers, no pressure — think as long as you like - Tap Reset to restart a level instantly RESPECTS YOU - Free, with no ads and no in-app purchases - Plays fully offline - No accounts, no tracking, no data collected Whether you want a quick brain teaser or a long, quiet untangle, Harbor Chaos is waiting at the docks.
