TickLock: Ring Lock Puzzle

TickLock is a tactile puzzle about a brass padlock, a chain of enamel rings and the clips that hold them together. Every turn clicks into place like a dial, and every solved level ends with the padlock snapping open.

HOW TO PLAY
• Rings hang from the padlock, linked by clips.
• Turn a ring until its gap sits on a clip, then let go: the clip springs open.
• A ring with no clips left drops away. Drop every ring and the padlock opens.
• Geared rings turn together, in opposite directions.
• Bolted steel rings can't be grabbed. Turn them through the rings they're geared to.
• Each 15° click costs one tick, and every level has a tick budget. Hard levels leave little room, so think before you turn.

MADE TO FEEL GOOD
• Detents that hold, then snap to the next notch, with layered haptics on iPhone.
• 3D mechanical-keyboard keycaps that tilt toward your finger, bottom out and spring back.
• Every sound is synthesized: ticks, gear chatter, clip snaps and the final unlock.
• Most iPads have no haptic engine, so on iPad the sound and visual detents carry the feel.

60 LEVELS, ALL SOLVABLE
• Every level is verified solvable by a solver.
• Each level has a par: the fewest ticks the solver found. Can you open the lock at par?
• Undo any move, hold Restart to start over, and ask for a hint when you're stuck.

ADS AND REMOVE ADS
TickLock is free to play and supported by ads.
• Occasional full-screen ads: after every few cleared levels and after a long run of undos, with a cooldown in between.
• Rewarded ads are always your choice: watch one for another hint (the first hint in each level is free) or for +10 ticks when you run out.
• A one-time Remove Ads purchase turns off full-screen ads. Rewarded ads stay available as an optional bonus.
