Arrows Flow

Read full description

Tap an arrow. If the path ahead is clear, it slides right off the board along its own winding line. If something's in the way, it bumps back โ€” so the real puzzle is finding the right order to set every arrow free. Arrow Flows is a calm, colorful line-untangling puzzle. Simple to pick up, tricky to master, and satisfying every single time a tangled board clears in one clean sweep. CLEAR THE BOARD - Every arrow is a thin winding line pointing one of four ways. - Tap to send it out โ€” but only when nothing blocks its path. - Clear all the arrows to win, and chase 3 stars for a flawless, under-par solve. 500 LEVELS ACROSS 10 WORLDS Journey through Paper Valley, Frostbite Peaks, Boomtown, Whirl Woods, and beyond. Each world adds a new twist: - Frozen arrows that need two taps to thaw. - Bombs that clear a neighbor on the way out. - Rotating arrows that turn with every move. - Linked pairs, portals, ghosts, and heavy stones. By the final world, everything's in play at once. MORE WAYS TO PLAY - Daily Challenge โ€” one seeded puzzle a day, the same for everyone, fully offline. Build a streak and protect it with freeze tokens. - Zen โ€” endless, relaxed play with no lives, no timer, and unlimited undo. Four board sizes from Breeze to Deep Zen. - Rush โ€” a five-minute sprint to clear as many boards as you can. - Master Gauntlet โ€” 100 expert boards and a permanent Grandmaster badge for finishing them all. TRACK YOUR PROGRESS - An Arrow Rating that climbs with clean, fast clears. - Stars, achievements, fastest-clear records, and a 12-week play heatmap. - Rise from Novice all the way to Grandmaster. FULLY OFFLINE No account, no sign-up, no internet required. Everything saves right on your device. Play on a plane, on the train, or anywhere at all. Gentle to learn, deep to master. Untangle your first board and see how far you flow.

About

Rainrelay

A little rain. A garden in bloom. Step inside Rainrelay, a cozy puzzle game set in a clay-style greenhouse. Place a few umbrellas, choose where the rain should go, and find a path to every plant. EVERY UMBRELLA COUNTS Each garden gives you a limited set of umbrellas. Point ordinary umbrellas left or right, use split umbrellas to feed two branches, and leave useful sockets empty so the rain can fall straight through. Some flowerpots pass water to the plants below. Think through the route, then tap Rain to see your idea come to life. 30 GARDENS TO EXPLORE Start with a single turn and grow into puzzles with several tiers, shared streams, and winding paths. Water every plant to finish a garden. Reach both bells in the same successful run to earn all three stars. Retry, undo, and step-by-step hints let you explore at your own pace, without timers or lives. A GREENHOUSE OF YOUR OWN Earn seeds through play and use them to build your collection: 9 umbrella styles, 10 flowers, and 8 decorations. Arrange flowers and furniture, admire your folded umbrellas on the rack, and watch your owned umbrella fabrics bring variety to the puzzle boards. MAKE TIME FOR A LITTLE CALM Swipe around your spacious greenhouse and zoom in on a favorite corner. The light follows your device's local time, while in-game wind and snow bring movement to the view outside. Play the puzzles and enjoy your greenhouse offline. From Garden 04, you can choose an optional rewarded ad for extra seeds when an ad is available; continuing, retrying, and hints remain available without watching one. The collection uses seeds earned in the game. Available in English and Vietnamese, with layouts for iPhone and iPad, sound controls, and a reduced-motion setting. No account is needed to play.
