TraceGlyph

TraceGlyph is a spatial path puzzle that challenges you to trace a valid route across a grid of symbol cells.

Each symbol cell combines a shape (circle, triangle, or square) with an arrow (up, down, left, right, and later diagonal directions). Your task is simple to learn yet tricky to master: start from the highlighted golden cell, move exactly in the direction the current arrow points, and make sure the next cell you land on has a different shape than the one you just left.

The goal of every round is to visit every symbol cell on the board before your move limit runs out. A single wrong step breaks the path, so every move matters.

Difficulty grows with your progress:
- The first rounds use a 4×4 grid with six symbol cells and only cardinal arrows.
- Diagonal arrows appear once you are comfortable with the core rules.
- Later rounds expand to a 5×5 grid with eight symbol cells.
- Blocking cells that cannot be stepped on add another layer of planning.
- Reversible cells flip their arrow after you pass them, rewarding careful foresight.

A built-in hint system shows the next recommended move when you need help. Your remaining hints affect your round score, and completing several rounds in a row unlocks a streak multiplier. Personal records, best times, and best move efficiency are tracked in your local profile.

The symbol gallery unlocks after you complete one hundred rounds, letting you browse every shape and arrow combination. A fresh weekly challenge with a larger board is available every Monday.
