Entanglement
« on: April 24, 2023, 10:16:31 pm »
Since I know we tend toward neurospicy folk here, and this game has provided me in the past (and is currently providing me now) much needed solace, I'll recommend the online game Entanglement.

It's sort of a puzzle game, based on hexagonal tiles. Each tile has 12 connection points which can either loop or pass through the tile.

The goal is to create the longest possible path with the tiles you draw. Bonus points for paths that go through multiple tiles.

It's free to play (possibly with ads that AdBlocker is blocking so I don't know). Extra maps are available for money but in my experience the "Classic" map provides hours of entertainment.

Personal best today: 83 tiles, 216 points.

That would be the game found here? (Just so you know, it's absolutely fine to include links in your posts, and in a case like this, very much encouraged, so that people can find the thing you're talking about.)

I've bookmarked it, as it seems like it might be my kind of thing. Thanks!

Thanks for sharing! I haven't finished a game yet but I've toyed with it for a minute (currently at work and should not be on internet forums), but this definitely seems like a new fidget game for me.

And just FYI to anyone not on a desktop, it works fine on mobile!

Yes, that's exactly it! Don't know why I hesitated to link it directly in the moment. But in any case you're welcome!

Thanks for sharing that one!  I needed a break from Tetris. :)
