About

Miso

Read full description

A tiny bridge. A very good idea. Meet Miso, a curious little axolotl with a remarkable talent: carrying one piece of the path. Take a piece, move it, and build a way across floating islands. The next step looks simple. The clever part is deciding what to leave behind, what to bring along, and when to come back. SMALL PUZZLES. BIG LITTLE DISCOVERIES. Explore 1,000 puzzles across five vivid worlds. Start with your first crossing, then work toward routes where keys, switches, portals and reusable pieces depend on one another. A solution is more than reaching the other side: it is finding the right order. FIVE WORLDS TO THINK THROUGH Find your rhythm among coral islands, spreading fire, slippery ice, rising ocean water and trembling bridges. Slide around corners, watch fragile ground, open a distant gate, or discover that Miso is the missing piece. MADE FOR ONE HAND Tap to walk. Use the action button to take or place a piece. Short, optional practice puzzles introduce new ideas one at a time. Undo a move, restart a route, or ask for the next step when you need a fresh perspective. A GENTLE RACE AGAINST THE ELEMENTS Each puzzle has a time limit. The world grows more urgent as the clock runs down, with music that builds tension without a piercing alarm. Menus pause the timer, so you can take a breath. YOUR NEXT CROSSING, ANYWHERE Play the puzzles offline, with no Miso account required. Your progress and preferences stay on your device. The game supports 11 interface languages, with a language selector in settings. Optional in-app purchases provide extra time, multi-move route help and direct access to all levels. Single-step hints and undo do not require a purchase. Purchases and external support pages require an internet connection. Take one piece. Find another way.
