ExactLink - Gem Duo Puzzle is a number line puzzle with a gem theme. Every gem has a twin. Connect each gem pair with one line, and make that line exactly the right length. Not just connected. Exact. Formerly ExactLink: Number Line Puzzle. The puzzles and modes are unchanged; only the look is new. HOW GEM PAIRS WORK In ExactLink, you link two gems by drawing a path between them across the grid, and the path has to be the exact length. That's the whole idea: a logic puzzle about connecting pairs and counting every step. If you enjoy number link, connect-the-dots or line puzzle games, you'll feel at home, with one extra rule that changes everything. HOW IT PLAYS Exact length Each gem pair has a target length. Draw a continuous line from one gem to its twin. Too short or too long, and that pair isn't finished. Counters below the board, such as 7/7, track each gem pair as you play. Plus and minus tiles Some tiles carry a plus (+) or minus (−) value, such as +3. Passing through one changes the effective length of your line, so a long detour can be exactly right and a shortcut can fall short. Exact+ Exact+ is the mode built around exact length and +/− tiles. Every step counts. Classic Classic keeps the ExactLink feel with a more traditional flow, for when you want a cleaner line puzzle. Daily Quest A fresh challenge every day. Goals above the board Two goals are shown above the board. Fill all: every cell on the board must be filled. Match steps: the step count, that is the line length, must be correct. 1,000+ levels For short sessions or long runs. QUICK START FOR BEGINNERS 1. Find each gem's twin. Gems come in pairs that share a color and a shape. 2. Read the board. Look at the gems, the +/− tiles and the goals above the board. 3. Draw a path. Drag from one gem to its twin through the grid. 4. Count as you go. Keep track of how many steps your line takes. 5. Use + and − tiles on purpose. Route through them when you need to add or remove length. 6. Fix mistakes fast. Undo a step, Reset the board, or use a Hint when you're stuck. 7. Solve every pair to see CLEARED, then move on to the next level.

Bamti One Path
Read full descriptionHide full description
Draw one line with Bamti! Visit every square exactly once. Drag your finger, and Bamti hops along the end of your line. Step on the numbered squares in order: 1, 2, 3. You can't cross the wooden fences. The rules are simple. But as the boards get harder, every move counts. â– A buddy in every number Each number you pass gets a cute Bamti buddy. When you finish, Bamti waves and says "Solved!" Confetti bursts across the board. â– Same seed, same puzzles A seed is the number that builds the puzzles. Share your seed, and your friend gets the exact same boards. Stuck? Switch seeds and start fresh. Each seed keeps its own progress, and your best record stays. â– Measured difficulty Board size does not set the difficulty. The game measures how many choices you have, how many dead ends there are, and how rare the answers are. Difficulty climbs slowly. Now and then, a sudden "surge" puzzle shows up. â– Your skill in numbers Your clears are used to estimate your skill. The game also shows your chance of beating the next puzzle. Your tier points drop a little when you take days off. So your tier shows how good you are right now. You can compete on Game Center leaderboards. â– Daily speedrun Three runs open every day: Rookie, Skilled, and Expert. You play five puzzles in a row against the clock. Share a code, and anyone can play the same five puzzles. â– Light and simple You don't need an account or a login. Puzzles are made on your device, so you can play offline. Hints are unlimited. After you use one, you wait 30 seconds. You can turn Bamti music, sound effects, and vibration on or off in Settings. In the first three puzzles, Bamti teaches you the rules. Boards start at 4 by 4 and slowly grow. The game is in Korean, English, and Japanese. It is free to play and contains ads.
