How to play Pipe Puzzle

Choose a round of Pipe Puzzle and settle into its rules. Rotate all pipes to connect inlet and outlet without leaks. Check the relevant rule before repeating a move. Begin with the solo mode shown on the page. Keep the game area visible while you use its controls.

Rotate the pieces in a 4×4 grid to join the inlet and outlet.

A careful first round

Before your first action, say what you are trying to achieve. Then compare the result with the goal. Notice the feedback after each input.

Your goal

Rotate all pipes to connect inlet and outlet without leaks. An attractive position is not enough unless the goal is met. Notice how the game responds to your input.

Step by step

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

Controls

Click or tap pipe tiles. Read a button’s label before selecting it. Look at the feedback after the action.

A useful example

An elbow must point toward both adjacent pipe ends. Apply the same reasoning to the position in your own round. Check the stated objective.

Watch out for this

Visual proximity does not connect mismatched ends. Read the feedback to see why an action did not have the expected result. Choose one rule to keep in mind for this round. Apply it consistently rather than guessing what another version might allow.
