Our take on Square's Route

The move limits keep each stage focused on route planning, but they also restrict experimentation: a wrong turn can use up moves needed to clear the remaining plants.

What is Square's Route?

Square’s Route is a puzzle game about navigating levels and clearing mutant plants.

Players solve movement puzzles and match colours to crush the plants. Local wildlife presents hazards, while hitting a fire bug can set off destructive waves that clear a route. The game has 100 levels across four environments. Each level also presents a move limit, creating a constraint on how much movement is available before the plants are cleared. Players can replay levels to try to perfect them.

How Square's Route plays

Each level limits the moves available before the remaining plants can no longer be cleared.
02Wildlife interactions
