Time to Tangle

Entanglement


It is with trepidation that we include here the link to Entanglement, an elegant and addictive Web game from Gopherwood Studios that might zap a hefty chunk of your day.

The object of the game is to tile a board in such a way that a meandering line painted on each tile is kept connected to the previous tile’s meandering line. You’re out if the line runs into the walls. Simple? Yes. Easy? No. In fact, what’s so compelling about this game is the ease with which it should be won versus the difficulty of actually winning it. But don’t be too discouraged. It is possible to complete the maze (and not just theoretically: Last Tuesday someone sent in a screen shot to the Goferwood blog with the completed game). But we wouldn’t recommend trying too hard.

Forward to a friend
