You cannot steer a hot-air balloon sideways. You can only rise and sink - so pick the wind layer that carries you where you need to go, then land softly in the field.
Wicker Loft Drifts is a calm navigation puzzle set over pastel patchwork countryside at dawn.
TWO CONTROLS, ENDLESS JUDGEMENT
Hold the burner to heat the envelope and climb. Hold the vent to release warm air and sink. That is all you have - the rest is reading the sky.
SIX WINDS, ALWAYS SHIFTING
Six stacked wind layers each blow their own direction and strength, shown on a slim side gauge. Directions sway slowly through the morning, so the best layer keeps changing. The lit arrow tells you which one is carrying you right now.
MARKERS, THEN TOUCHDOWN
Cross every numbered marker in order, then touch down inside the dashed landing field. Land under 1.5 m/s for a gentle touchdown - come in faster and the basket tips over in the grass.
