Threader
Steer through walls of rock, each with a single gap. Hold either side of the screen to move, let go to hold your line. Every wall you clear speeds the field up and narrows the next gap — and each gap is placed within reach of the last, so every flight is survivable.
How it works
- Hold the left or right side of the screen to steer. Let go to hold your line.
- Walls of rock scroll towards you, each with a single gap to thread.
- Every wall you clear speeds the field up and narrows the next gap.
- Your score is the number of walls threaded. One collision ends the flight.
- Each gap is placed within reach of the last, so every flight is survivable with good steering.
The same rules are shown inside the app, on the puzzle’s overview screen — one tap opens the difficulty choice and how to play together, so you never have to go looking for them.
Good if you want…
- Nerve rather than reaction speed
- A run that gets tighter as it goes
- No reading and no rules to learn
