A butterfly is caught in the web. Untangle it and set her free.
Tangle is a calm logic puzzle with a rescue at the heart of it. Every level is a knot of glowing dots and strings — drag the dots until no two strings cross, and the web falls apart in your hands. The butterfly trapped inside flies away, and joins your collection.
Easy to learn, hard to put down. One puzzle turns into ten, and ten into an hour.
● UNTANGLE THE WEB
Drag the dots so that none of the connecting lines overlap. Crossed strings glow red; every one you clear turns teal with a soft chime. No lives, no energy, and no way to fail a level — the timer only records how you did; it never runs out.
● FREE THE BUTTERFLY
One butterfly is tangled in every web, tethered to the strings and struggling to get out. Solve the puzzle and she escapes in a burst of sparks. It never stops being satisfying.
● A NEW PUZZLE EVERY DAY
The Daily Tangle is the same board for every player, every day. Solve it to build a streak. Miss a day and an earned streak freeze covers for you — freezes are earned by playing, never sold.
● WEEKEND TANGLE
Every Saturday and Sunday brings a five-stage themed run with its own colours. Finish the ladder for a pile of coins, a streak freeze and a handful of shards.
● RUSH
Sixty seconds on the clock, and every puzzle you untangle buys you more time. How far can you get? Completely optional — the rest of the game stays as unhurried as ever.
● COLLECT EVERY SPECIES
A new butterfly species joins your album every 5 levels — 12 hand-designed species, each with its own flavour and a rarity from Common all the way to Legendary. Past level 60 they return as rare colour variants, so the album never runs dry. Spend shards to raise a species a whole rarity tier.
● YOUR GARDEN
Every butterfly you have ever freed is in the air in one place, drifting on its own path. Tap one to open its card. It is the quietest screen in the game.
● THREE STARS ON EVERY LEVEL
Solve cleanly and you earn three stars; take the long way round and you earn one. Stars never block anything — they are simply there to beat.
● ENDLESS, ALWAYS SOLVABLE
Start with the handcrafted opening levels, then keep going forever. Tangle generates fresh puzzles that are guaranteed to have a solution, tuned to grow steadily harder without becoming a wall. Reach level 200 and there is still more.
● COINS, CHESTS, HINTS AND SCISSORS
Every clear opens a chest — usually a few coins, sometimes a Legendary. Spend them to permanently raise your hint ceiling, or to buy a pair of scissors. Stuck? A Hint shows you exactly which dot to move and where. Really stuck? Take the scissors and cut a string clean out of the web.
● CHAPTERS AND CHALLENGES
Levels are grouped into chapters of 20, each ending in confetti. Every tenth level is a CHALLENGE spike, and later levels add a fixed golden pin — one dot you cannot move.
● BEAT YOUR BEST
Every solve is timed and rated. Jump back into any level and beat your own record. Compete on seven Google Play leaderboards: levels completed, total stars, best Rush run, longest daily streak, fastest solve, chapter speedruns and total time.
● CALM BY DESIGN
Soft neon visuals on a dark background, synthesised sound, one-tap mute. No clutter, no pressure. Works offline — play on a plane, on the metro, anywhere.
