Birdie

One line a day.

The same puzzle for everyone, new at midnight wherever you are. Land every bird on a dark sleeve in as few moves as you can, then share your squares.

Coming soon to the App Store Β· free to play

How it plays

  1. Tap a wire to lift its flock.
  2. Tap another to send it. As many birds fly as there’s room for β€” you never choose how many.
  3. Every bird on a dark sleeve, and the switch throws itself. No move limit, no restart: every move counts.

Scored like golf

  • 🐦Birdie: the fewest possible moves
  • β›³Par: one more than that
  • Bogey, Double bogey, Triple bogey, then +4 and on

Your squares

  • 🟩a move that brought the birds closer to solved
  • 🟧one that didn’t
  • πŸ’‘where you used the bulb
  • ⚑the circuit closing

Share it, spoil nothing

Your result shows how the solve went, never the moves themselves.
