Gyrelatch: Ring Unlock Puzzle

Turn open rings until every gap clears its clamps. 70 calm space puzzles.

Out past the last beacon, the Gyre station keeps open rings locked in clamps. Your job is simple and quiet: turn each ring until its gap slips past every clamp, and watch it twist free into the dark. No timers, no lives, no rush.

How to play

• Tap a ring to turn it one step clockwise.
• Swipe along a ring the other way to turn it back.
• Where two rings cross, they are linked: turning one pulls its partner the opposite way, unless the partner's gap sits right at the crossing.
• A ring leaves the board when its gap covers all of its clamps and links. Freeing one ring can loosen the next.
• Clear every ring to finish the puzzle.

Features

• 70 hand-tuned puzzles across 7 space sectors, from two lonely rings to crowded fields of five and six.
• Every puzzle is checked by a solver, so each one has a solution.
• Undo and Hint are always free. A hint shows the next ring to turn and the direction.
• Earn up to 3 stars per puzzle: solve within par and without hints for a perfect result.
• A new Daily puzzle every day, with a streak that grows as you return.
• Collect stardust and spend it on ring finishes (Gloss, Frost, Brushed, Striped) and backdrops (Nebula, Deep Field, Dawn Rim).
• Records track solved puzzles, stars, perfect solves and your longest daily streak.
• Move counter and par for every puzzle, with no clock anywhere.

Progression

Sectors open one after another: solve 7 puzzles in a sector to reach the next one. Later sectors bring more rings and more links, so each turn has to be planned a little further ahead.
