About level 5
Stuck? The bulb button highlights an arrow that can escape right now. This board has 7 arrows with 2 bends between them. Only one arrow (14%) can escape at the very start; the rest are waiting on others. The deepest blocking chain is 4 steps long, so some arrows only become free after 3 rounds of clearing. The longest arrow stretches 6 units — it needs a long empty runway before it can leave.
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 6, row 1 — removing it frees another arrow straight away.
- Work in rounds: clear every free arrow, then look again. Each round exposes the next layer of the 4-layer chain.
- Stuck? The bulb button highlights an arrow that can escape right now (it just costs you the three-star rating).
