Rotate the tiles into one pipe network.

How to play Pipes

  • Tap a tile to rotate it clockwise. On a computer, right-click rotates it anticlockwise.
  • Every pipe end must join the matching pipe on the next tile.
  • No pipe may point outside the grid.
  • All tiles must form one connected network with no closed loops.

Your first useful move

Begin at the boundary, where pipe ends cannot point off the board. Follow those forced connections inward and avoid closing a loop before every tile is connected.
