About game
Drag the sockets across your screen to straighten out messy lines until every intersection disappears. Untangle Wires forces you to focus on logic as you untangle knots before the crossing counter hits zero. You watch wires change colors instantly when they no longer overlap, giving you immediate feedback on your progress. Solving these puzzles earns you volts, which you can spend on fresh aesthetic themes like neon night or rustic copper. Endless levels ensure you never run out of brain training challenges, and the difficulty grows steadily as you master the mechanics. Leaderboards track how many of these puzzles you finish compared to other people around the globe. Calm music accompanies your session, making this an effective way to unwind after a long day. You can play Untangle Wires right now in your browser without any annoying downloads or registrations.
How to play
The goal of each level is to untangle all the wires: no wire may cross another.
• Press and hold a socket with your finger (or mouse) and drag it to a new spot — the wire follows.
• Tangled and untangled wires are highlighted in different colours, and the counter at the top shows how many crossings are left. Bring it down to zero to clear the level!
• Stuck? Tap "Hint" — one socket snaps into its correct place on its own. A hint costs 25 volts, and if you're short, you can get one by watching an ad.
You earn volts ⚡ for every completed level. Spend them on the Themes screen to unlock new looks for the board and wires. On the Levels screen you can replay any unlocked level (replays give half the reward), and on the Leaderboard you can compete with other players on levels untangled.
