One move. Two boards. Think together. Lockstep is a daily logic puzzle where every move controls two boards at the same time. Swipe in a direction and both pieces move together — unless a wall, edge, or blocker holds one in place. Use that difference to reposition the boards and guide both pieces onto their matching goals at the same time. A new puzzle every day Each day brings a new Lockstep with a different challenge. Difficulty builds throughout the week, from lighter early-week puzzles to tougher Friday and Saturday boards. The Sunday Lockstep Sundays are different. The regular 4×4 boards expand to 5×5 for a larger weekly challenge built to test everything you’ve learned. Track your progress Build your daily streak, revisit previous puzzles in the Archive, and follow your performance with stats including optimal solves, average moves, solve time, hints used, and more.

Twin Drift is a calm spatial-logic puzzle. One directional command moves two Sparks at once, and both must settle on their matching docks in the same move.

DAILY DRIFT A new puzzle every day, with a seven-day archive. Share your result as a spoiler-free card. MECHANICS Polarity, Identity Barriers, Phase Gates, Anchor Tiles, One-Way Gates, Linked Switches, Pulse Bridges, and Relay Portals — each introduced with an on-board explainer.
