Loading Untie Threads
Tangling the threads…
This is taking longer than usual.
How to play
- Tap a thread to pull it out. It only comes loose if no other thread lies on top of it.
- Pull a trapped thread and it shakes, the threads holding it down flash, and you lose a heart. You have three hearts per level.
- Clear every thread to finish the level. The next one loads straight away.
- Stuck? Hint points to a thread that is free. A level cleared with a hint earns up to two stars.
Keyboard
- H hint · R restart
Good to know
- 250 levels, from 3 threads on level 1 up to 26, with more bends and overlaps as you go.
- Three stars for a level with no mistakes; each lost heart costs a star.
- Progress saves in this browser on this device. Clearing site data or using a private window starts over.
- No account needed. Just play.
ABOUT THE GAME
Read the overlaps, then lift the tangle apart.
Untie Threads asks you to find the order in a stack of coloured paths. A thread only comes free when nothing lies over it. Follow its bends and crossings before tapping: a thread can look clear at one end and still be trapped elsewhere. The 250 levels gradually introduce more threads and overlaps.
Tips for your next attempt
- Trace a thread from end to end. Check every crossing instead of judging it from a single visible section.
- When a pull fails, watch which blocking threads flash. That feedback tells you what to examine next.
- For a three-star attempt, take your time and solve without a hint. Restart lets you try the same arrangement again.
Why is a hinted level limited to two stars?
Hints reveal a removable thread. The game reserves the three-star result for a solution without mistakes or hints.
