Our take on Can't Live Without Electricity
The relaxed presentation may understate the commitment of its stage structure: each official stage takes about 30 minutes, while the growing number of houses makes later routing more demanding. Its main variety comes from generated layouts, items, and user-created content.
What is Can't Live Without Electricity?
Connect houses to power plants by matching their colors across square and hexagonal grids.
The game includes more than 50 official stages, with each stage taking about 30 minutes, while randomly generated houses and items create new layouts. Generator and jumper items can reduce the challenge, or players can avoid rare items while pursuing a perfect score. There is no time or editing limit, and progress can be saved during a level.
