Flow Free: Shapes is the newest twist on Big Duck Games\' Flow series

Flow Free: Shapes, the latest addition to Big Duck Games' popular puzzle series, challenges players with a twist on classic pipe puzzles. Instead of standard grids, players navigate flows around various shapes, connecting same-colored lines without overlaps to complete each level.

The gameplay remains true to the core Flow Free experience: connect colored lines to create complete flows. However, the introduction of shape-based grids adds a new layer of strategic complexity. With over 4,000 free puzzles, plus Time Trial and Daily Puzzle modes, there's ample challenge for puzzle enthusiasts.

While the game successfully implements the shape-based grid mechanic, the decision to fragment the Flow Free series into separate titles based on grid variations feels somewhat arbitrary. Despite this minor criticism, Flow Free: Shapes delivers a satisfying and engaging puzzle experience. Available now on iOS and Android, it's a must-have for fans of the series.
