Spin the knot. Find a clear path. Set every arrow free. 3D Maze Go turns arrow-escape puzzles into colorful, interwoven shapes you can explore from every angle. Drag to rotate, pinch to zoom, and tap an arrow when its way out is clear. Watch it wind through the knot and slip away. CHOOSE YOUR PACE Play the campaign on Chill, Brisk or Blitz. Start with an untimed walkthrough, then work through bigger shapes and longer arrows. Use a hint when you need a fresh angle, pause when you need a break, and replay levels you've reached. TAKE YOUR TIME IN SHAPE STUDIO Try a free Crystal Gem puzzle right from the home screen. There is no timer, and you can replay the sample whenever you like. The lifetime unlock adds unlimited Studio puzzles in four shapes: Gem, Torus, Cube and Ball. Choose a shape and start a fresh knot. RACE A FRIEND ON IPAD Sit on opposite sides of one iPad and race to clear matching puzzles. A blocked tap helps your rival, so look before you tap. FREE TO START The first 30 campaign levels and the Gem sample are free. One optional lifetime purchase unlocks the endless campaign, all of Shape Studio and Crystal arrows. Previous owners receive these features with their existing unlock. No ads or subscription. Play puzzles offline on iPhone or iPad. Progress and records stay on your device. If you want to share feedback, Records includes an optional play summary that you choose when to share.

About

HollowCube

Features
Read full description

Hollowcube is a calm 3D puzzle. You empty a cube of colored cells by sliding each one out along its arrow. A cell can leave only if the path in front of its arrow is clear. The trick is seeing the right arrow in a crowded, translucent cube. Deliberately quiet: • No ads, no timer, no lives, no daily streaks. • Fully offline — complete in airplane mode. • You can never get stuck; every board is solvable. • Undo isn't destructive: try another path and your old attempt stays too — move between them freely. • Color-blind mode and a layer view. 20 levels free. Unlock the rest with a single one-time purchase — not a subscription, once and forever.
