Wire Connect

Read full description

Wire Connect is a relaxing logic puzzle where you rotate wire pieces, connect the path, and light every bulb. Easy to learn, satisfying to solve, and playable offline. ROTATE. CONNECT. LIGHT IT UP. Tap a wire piece to turn it a quarter turn. Find the right path from the power source to every bulb and watch the board light up. No dragging, no complicated controls, and no long tutorial before you start playing. A SIMPLE RULE THAT GETS TRICKIER The first boards are small and easy to read. As they grow from 3Ɨ3 to 7Ɨ7, finding the right path takes more planning. When bulbs come in different colours, you also need to work out which route should reach each one. NO TIMER. NO PRESSURE. Take your time and solve each board at your own pace. There is no countdown and no streak to protect. Play a quick level during a break, unwind on the commute, or settle in for a longer puzzle session. GO FOR THREE STARS Finishing the level is only the first goal. Try again and find a cleaner solution with fewer turns. Each level awards one, two, or three stars depending on how efficiently you solve it. THE SAME PUZZLE FOR EVERYONE Levels use fixed seeds, so the same level is the same board on every device. Stuck on level 27? Your friend can play that exact puzzle too. UNDO, HINT, RESET Made a wrong turn? Undo your last move. Need a little help? Use a hint to reveal part of the solution. Want to start over? Reset the board and try a different route. PLAY OFFLINE No account, no sign-up, and no internet connection required. Play on a plane, on the metro, in a waiting room, or anywhere you want a quiet puzzle. FREE TO PLAY Start from the first level for free. Lives refill over time, while coins and hints can be earned through optional short videos. If you enjoy wire-connecting, flow, tile-rotation, pipe, or relaxing logic puzzles, Wire Connect gives you a simple and satisfying way to connect the pieces and light every bulb. Turn a piece. Find the path. Light them all.
