About level 1

Tap an arrow to send it off the board. It can only escape if nothing is in its way. This board has 3 arrows with 0 bends between them. 2 arrows (67%) can escape at the very start; the rest are waiting on others. The deepest blocking chain is 2 steps long, so some arrows only become free after 1 rounds of clearing.

Hints

  • Scan the border first: arrows pointing outward with nothing in front of them are safe opening moves.
  • The most useful opening move is the straight arrow pointing right with its head at column 5, row 4 — removing it frees another arrow straight away.
  • Stuck? The bulb button highlights an arrow that can escape right now (it just costs you the three-star rating).

Walkthrough

One valid order, found by the game's solver. Other orders work too — any arrow with a clear runway can go at any time.

  1. Tap the straight arrow pointing right with its head at column 5, row 4.
  2. Tap the straight arrow pointing up with its head at column 1, row 3.
  3. Tap the straight arrow pointing down with its head at column 4, row 3.
