Goal of the game is to rearrange cards, connected by string in a way that strings do not overlap other cards.
\nControls are pretty self evident - just drag and drop cards.
\nGame autosaves after each move, so you can stop and restart it anytime.
\nThere are also kind of cheat keys. 1-5 jumps to respective level. 6 jumps you to “free play” mode where you can generate boards based on the seed.

And maybe some more variations than “just more cards”. Maybe different base-layouts or some unmovable obstacles?

Harder than I expected and pretty innovative.\nIt’s fun to use emoji as game graphics, but be aware that some systems don’t have all of the same emoji as you find, and some others are very different. The background map on my system looks much smaller, so some lines point to outside the map. A few of the items on the board were totally invisible making this puzzle even harder.\nOther than that, i like the general look and feel of the game. The lighting and atmosphere are well designed, and everything in HTML/CSS! I love the little CSS zip-lock bags.

Some strings weren’t attached to any cards and changed seemingly randomly. I tried to untangle things, but couldn’t come to some end.

\nReminds me of when I’m untangling an ERD, but in a good way!

\nThe game looks a bit messy at first glance but the UX is pretty well done, you can see the grid behind to easily space and order clues around. Nice idea to highlight all connected strings when hovering a clue. Also nice to have the “completed” lines change from a dotted line to a thick one, helps the visibility.
\nThe theme is also respected.\nThe game could use a few more mechanics to diversify a bit the gameplay that becomes repetitive pretty fast, but overall great work !

\nThe graphics are good.
\nDragging stuff around didn’t really work for me, sometimes the dashed lines went solid, other times they disconnected from the map completely which didn’t seem right.
\nLooking at the later levels, things get way more complicated really quickly.
\nI wasn’t able to complete any of the levels no matter how many attempts I made.
\nIt’s a great idea though and I can see this concept working as a fully blown game.
