The goal to keep in mind

Rotate all pipes to connect inlet and outlet without leaks. Use the instructions to see which actions move you towards it. Notice how the game responds to your input.

From the start of a round

  1. Tap a tile for a quarter-turn.
  2. Match every pipe end with its neighbour.
  3. Trace the route.
  4. Finish all connections.

Getting comfortable with the controls

Click or tap pipe tiles. Keep the playing area visible while using these controls. Make sure you are interacting with the game rather than the surrounding page.

An example to follow

An elbow must point toward both adjacent pipe ends. Focus on why the action is allowed, not only its outcome. Check the stated objective.

Keep this in mind

Visual proximity does not connect mismatched ends. Check the rule before repeating the action. Keep the stated aim separate from side details such as animation or appearance. Progress is measured by the game’s own completion or scoring rules.
