Magnets
Every magnet pulls. Power up the circuit.
Magnets is a pulling puzzle built on one rule. Tap a magnet and every magnet in its row and column slides toward it until it bumps into another magnet or a wooden block, and loose steel nuts slide along with them. Pull the scattered magnets onto the sockets of the circuit in as few pulls as possible, then compare your total with the exact par.
How to play
- Tap a magnet: every magnet in its row and column slides straight toward it and stops against a magnet or a wooden block. The magnet you tap stays where it is.
- Press and hold a magnet to preview the pull, with dashed outlines where each magnet will land. Slide off the magnet to cancel.
- Fill every socket with a magnet. Each socket is the outline of a magnet, and the board powers on when the last one is filled. Loose steel nuts slide with a pull and stop like magnets, but you cannot tap them and they fill no socket.
- Some pulls make the circuit impossible, and spotting them is part of the puzzle. Undo steps back and Restart returns to the start, but neither refunds a pull.
- Your score starts from the level's difficulty and adds up to 15% for accuracy (pulls against par, undone pulls included) and up to 15% for speed.

Difficulty
Magnet count, steel nuts and the exact par set the difficulty, from a single tap to boards that need dozens of pulls. The board grows with the magnets: up to five magnets play on a 5 x 5 board, each further magnet adds a row and a column, and nine magnets fill a 9 x 9 board. Every board is measured so that the same setting is always about as hard.
