Paths is a sliding tile game where the goal is to create closed paths. You move (drag) and rotate (click) one tile at a time onto an 8x8 grid connecting the lines that run across the tiles to the lines on the other tiles on the grid. 64 tiles are to be arranged onto the 8x8 grid. The tiles can be positioned (drag) and rotated (click) so that paths are created. Once a tile is positioned it cannot be moved. You cannot let a line run off edge of the grid, nor onto another tile without connecting to a line on that tile.

What is Paths?

Paths is a sliding tile game where the goal is to create closed paths. (lang-es)

How do you play?

64 tiles are to be arranged onto the 8×8 grid, positioning the tiles so that paths are created.

8 tiles at a time are place to the left of the grid in a staging area (on the left side of the screen). Move (by dragging) and rotate (by clicking) one tile at a time onto the grid. Connect the lines that run across the tiles to the lines on the other tiles on the grid to make paths. You cannot let a line run off edge of the grid, nor onto another tile without connecting to a line on that tile. An X will appear over connections that result in broken paths.

Note: Once a tile is in position it cannot be moved.

The game is over when all tiles have been played or there is nowhere to place a tile without creating a broken path.

If you play against the computer, you must click somewhere off of the grid or on the ✓ button to indicate you've finished your turn.

Where do I get Paths?

Paths can be downloaded from http://activities.sugarlabs.org/addon/4409
