How to play Arrow Escape
- Tap any arrow: it flies straight in the direction it points.
- If another arrow is in the way, it bumps and you lose one of your 3 hearts.
- Clear every arrow from the board to finish the level.
- Run out of hearts and the level starts over. Levels never end: the board grows from 4×4 to 8×8 and the arrows get trickier.
Tips to beat your high score
- Start at the edges: arrows pointing outwards on the border are always free.
- Each arrow you remove can free the ones behind it. Look for chains.
- Colors match directions (blue up, orange right, green down, pink left), which helps you scan rows.
- Tap quickly when you are sure: chaining escapes builds a Flow bonus.

Frequently asked questions
Is every level solvable?
Yes. Levels are built in reverse, so there is always an order in which every arrow can escape.
How many levels are there?
Unlimited. Levels are generated from their number, so your friends get exactly the same level 30 as you.
What happens when I lose all hearts?
The level restarts with 3 new hearts. You never lose the levels you already cleared.
