Try the Game

Untangle the board.

Click an arrow to send it off the board. An arrow can leave only when the path in front of its head is clear.

A blocked arrow stays put and counts as a mistake. Mistakes cost score, never play: there are no lives and no game over.

Stuck? Show Me an Open Move points to one arrow that can leave right now. Using it costs five times a mistake.

ArrowSpark is designed for desktop browsers.

It needs a mouse or trackpad, a keyboard and a screen at least 960 × 540. Play on this device isn’t supported yet. The story of how it was built works anywhere.
