The controls to know

Click or tap pipe tiles. Read a button’s label before selecting it. A new-round button replaces the current round.

Put the rules into context

An elbow must point toward both adjacent pipe ends. Focus on why the action is allowed, not only its outcome. Notice the change in the playing area.

Keep this in mind

Visual proximity does not connect mismatched ends. Take a moment to reassess the position before continuing. Choose one rule to keep in mind for this round. Apply it consistently rather than guessing what another version might allow.
