Find your footing in Netwalk
Read the position before choosing your next action. Rotate tiles to form one connected network reaching every cell, without loose ends or loops. Start a new round when you are ready to try again. A new 5×5 network is created and its tiles are rotated. Keep the goal in mind before your next move.
Random 5×5 spanning-tree layouts are solvable by construction. Unique solution is not claimed; every valid connected, loop-free solution is accepted.
A focus for your next round
Begin with the basic rule, then follow the result of your action. Every cable end must meet the corresponding end of a neighbouring tile; no cable may point outside the board. Try the rule on the board, then read the next instruction.
The goal to keep in mind
Take a moment to check the current turn. Rotate tiles to form one connected network reaching every cell, without loose ends or loops.
Work through the instructions
- A new 5×5 network is created and its tiles are rotated.
- Tap a tile to turn it clockwise by a quarter-turn. Tiles connected to the central server light up.
- Every cable end must meet the corresponding end of a neighbouring tile; no cable may point outside the board.
- Connect all 25 cells in one network. The finish check accepts any valid complete network, not just the generator’s saved orientation.
Input guidance
The board gives you the information needed for the next action. Tap network tiles to rotate. Use Undo for the previous rotation and New puzzle for another generated layout. Keep the goal in mind before your next move.
An example before you play
Begin with the basic rule, then follow the result of your action. A tile with north and east cables connects only to matching south and west cables on those neighbours. Start a new round when you are ready to try again.
Notice this detail
Read the position before choosing your next action. A tile glowing green only means it reaches the server. The whole board also needs every end matched and all cells connected. Start a new round when you are ready to try again.
Questions about this game
What is the aim of Netwalk?
Rotate tiles to form one connected network reaching every cell, without loose ends or loops. The game is played locally in your browser.
During a round, how do the controls work?
Tap network tiles to rotate. Use Undo for the previous rotation and New puzzle for another generated layout. You can start a new round from the game controls.
When I start, can you show an example?
A tile with north and east cables connects only to matching south and west cables on those neighbours. Keep the current game state in view while applying this rule.
During a round, which mistake should I avoid?
A tile glowing green only means it reaches the server. The whole board also needs every end matched and all cells connected. Scores here do not represent cash or prizes.
What rules and limits are used here?
Random 5×5 spanning-tree layouts are solvable by construction. Unique solution is not claimed; every valid connected, loop-free solution is accepted. The instructions above use these same rules.
During a round, how many people can play here?
Solo. This is local browser play, not internet matchmaking. The instructions above use these same rules.
When I start, why are some tiles green?
They have a chain of matching cable ends to the central server. The worked example offers another way to follow the rule.
During a round, can a cable leave the board?
No. This version has fixed boundaries and no wrapping. You can start a new round from the game controls.
Is every puzzle solvable?
The generator starts from a connected tree and rotates its tiles, so the original orientation is a valid solution. The controls work with mouse or touch.
On this page, must I find exactly the stored answer?
No. Any orientation with all ends matched, all cells connected and no loop completes the puzzle. The instructions above use these same rules.
