Lift, drop, untangle.

Knotty 3D

Coloured ropes twist around each other as they hang from a wooden dowel. Lift the rope on top, drop it on an empty peg and sort every rope to its own colour before the moves run out. Between knots, look after Knotty, a yarn-ball monster you feed, bathe and let nap.

How it plays

Lift, drop, sort.

  1. 1

    Lift

    Tap a rope to lift it. A rope comes free only when it lies on top at every crossing, so read the knot before you pick one.

  2. 2

    Drop

    Tap an empty peg to drop the rope you are holding there. Every move counts, and the moves are limited.

  3. 3

    Sort

    Match every rope to the peg with its colour band before the moves run out. The more moves you have left, the more stars you earn, from one to three.

Features

Knots that never run out

  • Levels that never run out

    Every level is generated on your device from a seed and built backwards from a solved board, so it can always be solved, and there is always another one.

  • Seasons of 20

    Levels come in seasons of 20, each with its own generated name and theme. Every fifth level is HARD, level 20 is a BOSS level, and locks appear on spare pegs from level 15. Finished seasons can be regenerated.

  • Daily Knot

    A new puzzle every day, generated on your device from the date, so it stays the same puzzle all day.

  • Tangle Fever

    A weekend event with 10 levels each week and three tiers of chests to earn.

  • Time Rush and Pure

    Time Rush gives you 75 seconds and unlocks at level 6. Pure plays with no boosters at all.

  • Four boosters

    Scissors, Bomb, Hint and Undo help when a knot will not give.

  • Meet Knotty

    Knotty is a yarn-ball monster you feed, bathe and let nap. Look after it and it levels up.

  • Coins from play

    Coins come from wins, a gift box that fills as you win, a free daily chest, Tangle Fever chests and Knotty's level ups. Spend them in the Store on boosters and food.

  • Fully offline

    Every level and mode plays without a connection. The app has no internet permission at all, and an optional home-screen widget shows Knotty and your current level.

Just for fun

Earned by playing. Never for sale.

  • Coins, boosters, food and chest rewards are virtual in-game items with no real-world monetary value.
