Line Escape

Find a little clarity, one move at a time. Line Escape is a calm, fully offline arrow puzzle. Every board is a small knot of folded lines, and your goal is simple: clear the board by removing the arrows in the right order. Each arrow leaves the board through its own exit path — but only when nothing stands in its way. Plan ahead, avoid mistakes, and clear all 30 levels at your own pace. A PUZZLE THAT FITS YOUR PACE • 30 hand-built levels that grow from simple to satisfyingly tricky • No ads, no timers, no rush — just you and the board • Fully offline: play on a plane, in the subway, or anywhere without a connection • Your progress is saved on your device, so unlocked levels, best stars, and an unfinished game are always there when you return HOW TO PLAY 1. Look at the board. Every arrow is a folded line with its own exit direction. 2. Tap an arrow whose exit path is clear. It slides out of the board and makes room. 3. Blocked arrows stay put, and each mistake costs one of your three lives. 4. Clear every arrow to win. Finish with fewer mistakes to earn up to 3 stars per level. 5. Stuck? Hints point to an arrow that can move right now, and a long press shows any arrow's exit path and blockers. TOOLS THAT HELP, NEVER PUNISH • Unlimited hints — use them freely, stars are never reduced • Direction guidance: long-press any arrow to preview its path • Zoom in up to 3× on larger boards • Pause and resume anytime; your game is saved automatically • Sound and haptic feedback you can switch on or off PROGRESS THAT STAYS YOURS • Beat a level to unlock the next one; replay any unlocked level to chase a better result • Best results are never lowered by replays — your 3 stars stay 3 stars • Up to 100 recent game records, stored locally on your device • English and 简体中文 interfaces, with system-language support Line Escape never asks for an account. Your progress, settings, and records stay on your device, and the whole game works without the internet. Just pick it up, breathe, and find the way out — one arrow at a time.
