Two puzzle games in one calm, minimal package. Rotate pipes until every line connects, or trace a single unbroken path through every dot. No timers, no lives, no ads — just you and the next satisfying click. CLASSIC — CONNECT THE PIPES Tap a tile to rotate it, and link every circle to its square. Straights, corners, T-junctions and long diagonal runs weave through each other in ways that look impossible right up until the last piece turns and the whole board lights up. 700 levels, starting gentle and growing into genuinely tricky networks. DRAW — ONE LINE, EVERY DOT Begin at 1, finish on the last number, and cover every cell on the board in one continuous stroke. Obstacles block your way. The numbers must be reached in order. Take a wrong turn and the path won't close — but you can always trace back and find another route. 30 levels of pure path-finding. WHY YOU'LL STAY • No timers, no lives, no failing — think for as long as you like • Unlimited hints for when a board simply won't budge • Plays fully offline, anywhere, no account needed • Minimal line art in a warm, dark palette that's easy on the eyes • Your progress saves automatically, level by level ONE PURCHASE, PLAY FOREVER Everything is free for your first 3 days. After that, a single one-time purchase unlocks both modes and all 730 levels for good — no subscription, no ads, no coins, no energy meters, no waiting. Questions or ideas?

Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: Loopsy at every 3 days against Gridweave's fortnightly. Loopsy also leads on ratings volume (6 vs 1). Gridweave's advantage is iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Loopsy sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Gridweave sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 5.0 for Loopsy against 5.0 for Gridweave. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Loopsy has 6 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
Loopsy ships an update every 3 days, Gridweave fortnightly. Both last shipped on October 24, 2026.
