How to play Arrow Puzzle, the daily escape puzzle
Arrow Puzzle is a daily escape puzzle. Every arrow on the grid wants to fly off the board in the direction it points. Tap an arrow to release it, but only when nothing stands between it and the edge.
Clear every arrow to solve the day. A blocked tap costs nothing, and you cannot get stuck: any arrow that can leave is always a safe choice.
A new board goes live at midnight in your time zone, easy at the start of the week and hardest on Sunday.
Strategy tips
- Look at the edges first. Arrows near the rim that point outwards usually have a clear path.
- Follow the chain. When an arrow is blocked, look at what blocks it. Freeing that one often opens a whole line.
- Watch for pairs that face each other. Two arrows pointing at each other in a line block each other, so one must leave sideways first.
- Use a hint. Hint points at an arrow whose path is clear.
Frequently asked questions
- Can I make a wrong move?
- No. Any arrow that can leave may leave, and the board stays solvable.
- What happens if I tap a blocked arrow?
- Nothing. It stays where it is and nothing is counted against you.
- Do I need a keyboard?
- No. Tap or click an arrow. On a keyboard, Tab moves between arrows and Enter or Space releases one.
- Can I play more than one a day?
- Endless mode has unlimited arrow puzzles from Easy to Expert, and the archive keeps every past daily board. It is free, with no account.
