Connect the coloured dots. Fill every square. Come back tomorrow. Flowly is a quiet puzzle game about drawing lines. Every board has pairs of coloured dots. Join each pair without crossing another path, cover every square on the way, and the board is done. It takes ten seconds to understand and a good while longer to put down. FOUR NEW PUZZLES EVERY DAY Easy, Medium, Hard and Extreme - four fresh boards each day, the same four for everyone, arriving at midnight on your own clock. Easy is a five minute coffee puzzle at 5x5 or 6x6. Extreme is an evening at 11x11 or 12x12. Play one or play all four. KEEP YOUR STREAK Solve any one of the day's puzzles and your streak grows. Only one - so a busy Tuesday costs you nothing as long as you turn up. Miss a day entirely and it starts again, which is the point of a streak and why it feels worth protecting. OVER 4,000 LEVELS IN FREE PLAY Thirty-six hand-tuned level packs, from gentle 5x5 boards to enormous 12x15 ones, arranged as a descent from the shoreline to the deep. Later packs add stones you cannot draw through and walls you cannot cross. Play them in any order, at your own pace, forever. NO TIMER, NO PRESSURE Nothing on the daily board is on a clock and there is no penalty for thinking. Draw over your own line whenever you change your mind - that is how the game is meant to be corrected, not a mistake. No lives to wait for and no interruptions mid-puzzle. HINTS WHEN YOU WANT THEM Three a day, shared across every board you open. Each one reveals a little more of one colour's path - enough to get moving again, never the whole answer. Run out and you can watch a short ad to refill the day, or buy a pack of extra hints if you would rather not. Neither is ever required to finish a board. PLAY YESTERDAY'S PUZZLES Missed a day? The archive keeps every past board, so nothing is ever gone for good. PROGRESS WORTH HAVING Levels, achievements, daily goals, personal bests and a full statistics screen. All of it yours, all of it on your phone. PLAYS OFFLINE, ALWAYS No account. No sign-in. No connection needed. Every puzzle is already on your device, so the daily board is waiting on a plane, on the underground, or anywhere with no signal at all. BUILT TO BE KIND Every colour carries its own shape as well as its own hue, so the board reads for colour-blind players too. Large touch targets, a dark theme, reduced-motion and high-contrast settings that genuinely work. FLOWLY PREMIUM One purchase, forever. Remove Ads does exactly that. Everything removes ads, opens the whole archive, adds advanced statistics, streak protection, premium themes and unlimited hints. Neither ever makes a puzzle easier - every board is the same board for everyone. Extra hints are also sold separately, in packs. A connect the dots puzzle for people who like a real puzzle. If you enjoy pipe and flow games, logic puzzles or a daily brain teaser, Flowly will feel like home. Made by Dottlet Studios. Little games. Big personality.
