Techniques & Strategy

12 techniques to solve Arrow Escape faster and with fewer mistakes, organized into basic, intermediate, and advanced.

Basic

Figure out where each arrow goes, and how far, before you tap.

Remove arrows that can already escape to open up space.

Outer arrows with short paths are usually already open.

If you're not sure, check the path before you tap.

Remove whatever is blocking the arrow you want to clear.

Target spots where removing one arrow opens several paths at once.

The longer a path crosses the grid, the more likely it is to be blocked along the way.

Arrows in the same row or column pointing the same way must be cleared in order.

Picture whether this move opens the path for the next one.

Design an order where arrows clear one after another like dominoes.

Build the habit of clearing a board without losing a single heart.

Chain obvious moves quickly to cut down your clear time.
