Arrow Escape — a logic puzzle for Android

Tap an arrow and it flies the way it points. If another arrow is in the way, it can't go. Every board can be cleared, so the puzzle is never whether — only in what order.

Tap the arrows. Some can't go yet.

The rules, in full

There are three of them.

What's in it

Two thousand boards, a new one every day, and five ideas that arrive one at a time.

2,000 levels

Drawn from four pools — easy, medium, hard and expert — and deliberately shuffled, so a hard board is followed by something gentler instead of a wall.

A daily puzzle

The same board for everyone in the world, with a calendar going back to January 2025. Miss a day and you can still play it.

Monthly trophies

Clear every day in a month for silver, gold if you were quick about it, and diamond if you three-starred all of them.

Bonus arrows

Now and then an arrow appears ringed with a countdown. Send it off before the ring closes and you get a heart back.

Five hearts

A wrong order costs one. One comes back every twenty-five minutes, whether the app is open or not.

Ten themes

Bought with the stars you earn. Several have backdrops that move — meteor showers, mountains, rising bubbles, a city skyline, trees, and a sun that sinks into the notch between two peaks.

Screenshots

Taken on a phone, across several of the ten themes.

  • A board with an arrow held down, a line of dots marking the route ahead of it
    Hold an arrow and dots trace the route it will take.
  • An arrow mid-flight, leaving a trail behind it as it travels down the board
    Tap it and the arrow flies out along that line, off the board.
  • A large board containing locks, turners and numbered arrows
    Later boards get wide, and bring locks, turners and portals.
  • The daily puzzle for 7 September 2026
    The daily puzzle — the same board for everyone, worldwide.
  • A month of daily puzzles in a calendar, with the stars earned on each day
    Every past day stays playable, and a full month earns a trophy.
  • The in-game How to play screen listing the rules
    The whole rulebook, on one screen.

Five mechanics, introduced one at a time

Each one arrives on its own board, with nothing else to think about.

  1. Diagonals

    Arrows that point between the four compass directions, so paths cross where you don't expect them to.

  2. Turners

    A tile that bends a flight path by ninety degrees, sending the arrow off on a new heading.

  3. Portals

    A pair of tiles. An arrow that reaches one carries on from the other, somewhere else on the board.

  4. Chains

    Numbered arrows that have to leave in their own order, on top of everything else.

  5. Locks

    Arrows held shut, opening only as the board empties around them.

Themes

Stars come from clearing boards well. Five unlock at fifty stars, five at a hundred and fifty.
