How to play
- Trace the arrow’s forward route, checking walls, lines and enemies.
- Recognise left, right, reverse and exit nodes. You have three hearts; a miss costs one. A successful hint removes an escapable line; hints and misses each add five seconds.
- Pinch to zoom on dense boards, then hold and pan. Wait for hazards to move rather than tapping blindly.
Levels & challenges
Stages 5, 15, 25… feature the serpent; 10, 20, 30… the spider. Boss stages start with a five-minute time budget.
Spider difficulty increases across stages 10–50, 60–100, 110–150 and 160–190; stage 200 starts tier five. Size, gait and small-spider pressure change.
Bosses & special rules
Hit the patrolling serpent with departing arrows, then defeat it and clear the board. The spider’s body cannot be damaged: clear its board to win.
Grounded feet lock orange lines; tapping a locked line costs a heart. Flying arrows hitting feet, small spiders or red scorch cells also cost a heart. Only laser-end scorch cells collide, not the entire beam. Jumping releases foot locks until landing.
A useful approach
Questions
Why did an orange line cost a heart?
A foot is holding it. Wait for release and recheck the route.
The board is empty but I lost?
Serpent stages also require defeating the core; spider stages require clearing the board.
Why is a returned line still locked?
After hitting another line, it unlocks when you successfully launch a different valid line.
Account & troubleshooting
Google says this sign-in is not linked?
For a first visit, confirm creation of a Web member in the original tab, then select Confirm and continue. To add a provider to an existing membership, sign in with the linked provider first. Matching email addresses do not merge accounts.
The confirmation record disappeared after closing a tab?
Open My account and check the original operation. Use the Google or Apple recovery option when offered. Check pending results before retrying; keep site storage and avoid repeatedly creating new accounts.
Where can I change my name? Does iOS share it?
Save a 1–20 character Web member nickname in My account. Web and iOS accounts, progress and assets are separate. Maomao leaderboard names are registered separately.
Progress or pictures will not load?
Check the connection, signed-in membership and sync status. Keep the original tab and retry. Avoid multiple writable tabs for one game. Do not clear storage or reset progress first. Contact us with the game, level/date, browser and error text, never passwords or codes.
Analytics permission is saved but tracking is blocked?
DNT, GPC and blockers can still prevent analytics connections. Refusing analytics does not affect play. Analytics permission and ad availability are separate.
