GlyphRoute

GlyphRoute is a compact logic puzzle for short breaks, waiting rooms, and commutes. Each round is one complete path-fitting challenge that you can finish in under a minute.

HOW TO PLAY
A 5x5 grid of arrow tiles appears with a green start dot and a red goal dot. Tap any arrow tile to rotate it 90 degrees clockwise. Your goal is to turn every arrow so that they all join a single continuous path that runs from the start to the goal. The route updates instantly after every tap, so you can see the effect of each move right away: watch as the light follows the connected path you have built so far.

RULES AND ROTATIONS
Each rotation spends one step. You start with a limited number of steps per level, and the allowance grows as levels get harder. If your route reaches a dead end or forms a loop, the affected tiles flash red as a clear signal. You may undo one rotation once per level if you change your mind.

THIRTY PROGRESSIVE LEVELS
Levels are divided into three chapters of increasing difficulty.
- Basics: simple one-direction routes that teach the core rotation loop.
- Fixed tiles: certain tiles keep their original direction and can never be rotated, so you must plan a route around them.
- Limited and hidden tiles: limited tiles only accept one specific direction, and hidden tiles reveal their direction only after you tap them once.
A bonus Star Chapter opens up as you collect stars.

STAIRWAY OF DIFFICULTY
Every attempt on the same level is freshly generated from a solvable pattern, so repeats stay fresh while always remaining fair. The first few levels use gentle scrambles; later levels mix fixed, limited, and hidden tiles to deepen your planning and memory.

SCORING AND REWARDS
Finish faster to earn up to three stars per level. Your best step count for every level is saved, giving you a personal target to beat. Completing ten levels unlocks the next chapter and its rule entries, which explain every special tile and the best strategy for it.

DAILY CHALLENGE
Each day a puzzle is drawn from your unlocked chapters. Finish it to claim an extra star bonus. It runs fully offline, so it works anywhere with no connection or account.

The interface keeps a calm, light visual style with clear symbols and color-free cues, so players who perceive colors differently can still read every state easily. There is no timer pressure and no paywall, just a short, satisfying logic loop you can pick up between tasks.
