How to play Pipe Puzzle

Take a moment with Pipe Puzzle before moving to another game. Rotate all pipes to connect inlet and outlet without leaks. Choose a clear next step rather than rushing through the instructions. Identify the playing area and the controls you need. Keep the game area visible while you use its controls.

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

Review a difficult moment

When a decision goes wrong, compare it with the common mistake described below. Start again only when you intend to leave the current round. Make the next step deliberately.

Your goal

Rotate all pipes to connect inlet and outlet without leaks. The feedback beside the game helps you follow the round. The example below illustrates a decision.

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. Use the control method described here for this activity. Check any mode label before starting.

A useful example

An elbow must point toward both adjacent pipe ends. Your next round may have a different position, so inspect it before acting. Read the matching step again.

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. After a move, check what changed. Decide which rule explains the new state before acting again.
