Net

Net (also known as Network) challenges you to rotate grid tiles so that all network segments connect into a single, fully linked system with no loose ends.

The game presents you with a grid of scrambled network tiles—each tile showing a segment of pipe or wiring (such as straight lines, corners, or T-junctions). Your goal is simple but compelling: rotate the tiles so that every piece connects seamlessly to form a fully linked network.

In the standard mode, the network must connect to a central “power source” (usually marked in the center or at a specific location), and every tile must be part of a continuous path leading back to that source—no dead ends or isolated segments allowed. All connections must be consistent: if one tile has a wire exiting to the right, the adjacent tile must have a matching connection on its left.

What makes Net especially satisfying is its blend of local logic and global connectivity. Early moves may seem trivial, but as the grid grows, you'll need to think several steps ahead to avoid trapping sections of the network. The puzzle is always solvable by logic, and each grid is randomly generated with a unique solution.

Rotate the grid squares so that they all connect to form a single, continuous network with no loops.

Left-click a square to rotate it anticlockwise; right-click to rotate it clockwise. Middle-click—or Shift+left-click if you don't have a middle mouse button—to lock a square once you're confident it's correct (preventing accidental rotation). Click the same way again to unlock it if you change your mind.

Squares that are connected to the central square are highlighted. Your goal is to light up every square in the grid—not just the endpoint blobs.

When this becomes too easy, try a ‘wrapping' variant from the Type menu, which allows network lines to wrap from one edge of the grid to the opposite edge!
