ABOUT THE GAME
Link Flow game overview
At the centre of Link Flow is a dot-connection pattern puzzle built around one task: join the dots with lines that reproduce the required pattern. Study the complete target pattern before drawing. That first Link Flow decision shapes Link Flow's route, board state or timing for what comes next. The next Link Flow step is to click and drag or tap and swipe between the first pair of dots; after that, use undo when the new line blocks a connection that still has to be made. Progress in Link Flow works this way: Later levels increase the number and complexity of connections that must be planned together. Its failure pressure comes from the fact that an early connection can occupy the route needed by another line, so draw the most constrained or longest connection before filling easy local links.
WHAT TO EXPECT
Before you start
Link Flow combines a dot-connection pattern puzzle with this progression: later levels increase the number and complexity of connections that must be planned together. Its pressure comes from the fact that an early connection can occupy the route needed by another line. Check whether two intended lines need the same space before committing either one. Carry that Link Flow priority into the first run.
GETTING STARTED
How to play Link Flow
Study the complete target pattern before drawing. Link Flow's purpose is to join the dots with lines that reproduce the required pattern, so the next action should support that target: click and drag or tap and swipe between the first pair of dots. Then use undo when the new line blocks a connection that still has to be made. Avoid the central risk that an early connection can occupy the route needed by another line.
Use the next run to test these Link Flow details: check whether two intended lines need the same space before committing either one. Draw the most constrained or longest connection before filling easy local links. Finally, restart a tangled layout rather than adding corrections around a flawed opening. Judge the outcome against Link Flow's actual progression: later levels increase the number and complexity of connections that must be planned together.
