Ready for a game that relaxes you and fires up your brain at the same time? Welcome to Connect Tracks — a logic puzzle game built around the classic train tracks puzzle. Here you have just one job: lay a single, fully connected railway and put every stretch of track exactly where it belongs! Simple rules, deep strategy Number clues: Every row and column has a number beside it, telling you exactly how many track cells belong there. Count them — the answer is hidden in the numbers. Connected tracks: Tracks can't break off or fork; every cell's direction has to line up seamlessly. The moment every clue is satisfied and the tracks form one complete route, the train sets off! Step-by-step: Double-tap to lay track, tap to mark an X, swipe to connect. You get only 3 mistakes — guessing gets you nowhere, so make every move count. Key features A pure, immersive experience No timers, low pressure: No rush — just reason quietly at your own comfortable pace. Non-intrusive ads: A zero-interruption experience that lets you sink into focused, almost meditative flow. Play offline anytime: No connection needed — ideal for commutes, waiting in line, or your morning coffee. A difficulty ladder from beginner to master From 4×4 starter boards to brain-bending 12×12 grids, the difficulty climbs steadily, and every level has a unique solution. A quick few-minute tutorial walks you through the joy of "number reasoning" — zero barrier to start. With one board, a set of numbers, and a single railway, Connect Tracks gives you a focused, relaxing moment every day. When the last piece of track drops into place and the train whistles out, you'll see: real rest isn't switching off — it's a bit of thinking that lands just right. Download now, start laying track, and get today's train out right on time! Terms of Service: https://oakevergames.com/tos.html Privacy Policy: https://oakevergames.com/pp.html

A calm, uncluttered take on the block puzzle — no timer and no pressure. How to play Drag the three shapes from the tray onto the 9×9 grid. Fill a whole row or a whole column and it clears away, making room for more. Once you've placed all three shapes, a new set of three appears. The game ends when none of the shapes will fit anywhere on the board — so every move is about keeping your options open. Completely free — no ads, no accounts, nothing locked behind a purchase. There's an optional tip jar if you'd like to support development. Turn and plan ahead Double-tap any shape in the tray to turn it a quarter turn, as often as you like. The next three shapes are shown under the tray so you can plan your moves — or hide them in Settings for a tougher game. Score and combos You earn points for every block you place, and more for clearing lines. Clear more than one line at once, or clear lines on back-to-back moves, and you'll pick up a bonus on top. A running combo shows on screen, and emptying the whole board earns a big bonus. Your highest score is saved on your device. Daily Puzzle A new puzzle every day. Start from a partly filled board with nine set shapes, in three sets of three, and score as high as you can to earn up to three stars. The week gets harder as it goes, from easy on Monday to expert on Sunday, and you can try again as often as you like. Your results and your streak of consecutive days are saved on your device. Gets tougher as you go As your score climbs, new shapes join the mix. Each new shape is guaranteed to turn up in the next set of shapes drawn, so you won't wait long to try it. The small shapes still turn up, just less often, so the further you get, the more every move counts. No timer There's no clock and no move limit. Take as long as you like over each placement — the only thing that ends a game is running out of room. Clean, quiet design No internet connection required. No sign-up, no notifications, no nonsense. Just you and the grid.
