About

Untangle

Features
Read full description

Untangle is a puzzle you play to slow down. Each puzzle is a tangled web of glowing nodes. Drag them around until no lines cross. That is the whole game. No timer counting down, no score shouting at you, no screen full of confetti. Just a knot, your thumb, and the quiet moment it comes undone. Most puzzles take about thirty seconds. One flows into the next, so you can untangle one on a queue or a dozen before sleep. The difficulty rises gently as you go, from a handful of nodes to a satisfying web. A NEW CHALLENGE EVERY DAY One fixed puzzle each day, the same for everyone. Come back tomorrow for the next. SIX THEMES Cyber comes free. Unlock Aurora, Ocean, Sunset, Forest and Monochrome together, each with its own palette and ambient track, for a calmer screen in any mood. MADE TO BE HONEST - No timers or energy that gate how much you play - No interstitial ads, ever. One small banner on the menus, nothing during a puzzle - No loot boxes, no premium currency, no fake urgency - One optional purchase unlocks every theme for good. That is it. Built for short, unhurried moments. Untangle the web. Find the calm.
