- 10 easy variants added
- four types of path tiles added which were missing

 

Goal: create a loop (or continuous path) using all red (or all blue) path pieces.

Click the 5x5 board.
24 square tiles with red and blue path pieces will be dropped by the system onto the board.

Click two tiles to make them swap places.
Or click a tile, then an empty position to move a tile to an empty position.
Markers at the border will remind you which from- and to-position you have selected.
You can also click the same position twice to rotate a piece clockwise. (Experts will try not to use as few rotations as possible, though!)

You win when you have created a closed red or blue loop using all tiles.
All connection points must be colour-matching, of course, connecting red path pieces with red path pieces and blue path pieces with blue path pieces.
Note that for a red loop you have to use at least one red path piece of each tile, but you are allowed to use both red path pieces.

Once you solved the puzzle for the red path, solve it for the blue path.

Variant 2: '6x6' : 36 pieces dropped
Variant 3: '7x7' : 48 pieces dropped
Variant 4: '8x8' : 64 pieces dropped
Variant 5: '9x9' : 80 pieces dropped
Variants 6 to 10 : similar to variants 1 to 5, but only five rotations allowed! A counter at the lower left corner will show the number of rotations you have used.

Variants 11 to 20: similar to variants 1 to 10, but in the final setup, all adjacent 
pairs of tiles must have matching connections (red path must connect red path, blue to blue).
Hence variants 11 to 20 are much more difficult.
 

This game uses a set of 70 symmetrical tiles.
Each tile can occur up to ten times.

Please note that there are two alternative piece sets available.
