About

VOLT

Read full description

Rotate. Connect. Light it up. Turn the circuit pieces so power flows from the source to every bulb on the board. No numbers, no clutter—just tap a piece to rotate it. The rules take seconds to learn, but the solving goes surprisingly deep. HOW TO PLAY Trace the wiring from the golden power source and get electricity to every bulb. Tap a piece to rotate it 90° clockwise; press and hold to turn it back. Live wires glow like neon, so you can always see how far the current reaches. Leave no loose ends—no wire pointing at nothing—light every bulb, and the circuit is complete. WHAT MAKES VOLT DIFFERENT - There's always exactly one answer. Every puzzle is verified by a dedicated solver and shipped only if it has a unique solution. You get there by logic, never by guessing. - Difficulty grows with the depth of the read, not just the size of the board. Hard and Expert puzzles are built so you can't finish on forced moves alone—real challenge for experienced players. - No numbers required. If sudoku isn't your thing, you'll feel right at home. It's pure, intuitive, and works in any language. FOUR DIFFICULTIES - Easy (5×5): a gentle start you can solve on forced moves. - Medium (7×7): a satisfying bit of thinking. - Hard (8×8): always demands a deeper read somewhere. - Expert (9×9): the real thing—hold the whole board in your head. A PUZZLE EVERY DAY A fresh "Daily Circuit" everyone in the world plays together. Keep your streak alive and make it a habit. MADE FOR YOU IF - You want to sharpen your mind on a commute or a coffee break - You're tired of number puzzles—or numbers just aren't your thing - You love Pipes, Netwalk, or loop-style puzzles - You want a calm wind-down ritual before bed - You're hunting for puzzles that are genuinely hard, not just big PRIVACY & PEACE OF MIND - No account needed.

Read full description

Untangle is a calm knot puzzle. Every board starts as a tangled web of dots and lines. Drag the dots until no two lines cross — that is the whole game. EVERY PUZZLE CAN BE SOLVED Each board is built from a planar graph, so a crossing-free layout always exists. No dead ends, no luck — just you and the tangle. A NEW PUZZLE EVERY DAY The Daily Puzzle is the same graph for everyone, everywhere. Solve it in as few moves as you can, build a streak, and share a spoiler-free emoji card with friends. The daily is always free. A 200-LEVEL CAMPAIGN Work through 200 levels across 4 tiers — Bronze, Silver, Gold, Sapphire — that get trickier as you climb. The first three levels are free — unlock the full campaign with a single one-time purchase. BEAT PAR Anyone can untangle a board eventually. The real game is doing it in fewer moves than par. A genuine skill ceiling for puzzle lovers. DESIGNED TO RESPECT YOU - No ads - No accounts, no tracking, no data collection - One optional one-time unlock — never a subscription - Plays completely offline Just a clean puzzle and a fresh tangle every day.
