Our take on Lines

Rather than presenting puzzles as static arrangements to solve, Lines turns the solution into a visual contest: dots trigger spreading colour, and control of the drawing determines the winner. Its short sessions and community level creation also depart from the usual campaign-focused puzzle structure.

What is Lines?

Lines is an abstract puzzle game built around coloured races that spread across drawings.

Players place or remove dots, then watch the colours compete; the colour covering the greatest area wins. The core game contains 500 levels, while Steam Workshop integration supports sharing and playing community-created stages through the level editor. Six modes are included: Point, Eraser, Rope, Knife, Portal, Mixed, and Infinite. A Daily Challenge allows one attempt, while winning streaks, medals, trophies, and achievements add longer-term goals.

Twitch integration supports play involving streamers and viewers. Sessions can last seconds, or players can continue through a streak of 20 games. The game includes localization in English, German, Russian, Brazilian Portuguese, Chinese, Italian, Spanish, French, Korean, Japanese, Polish, Arabic, and Dutch.
