About Tangle Fun

It is a 3D arcade puzzle where every level starts as one big knot of wires.

Each level shows a shelf with an electrical device on it and a bunch of wires hanging down into the sockets below. You can only unplug one cable at a time, and it has to go into a free socket before you can grab another one.

Every wire has its own color, which helps you follow a single cable through the mess. A level is done once all the wires sit in sockets and stay clearly apart from each other, and then the next one opens.

You only get a few free spots to work with. That means you have to think about where each plug goes before you drop it.

Quick summary

  • Each level starts with colored cables knotted together under a shelf with an electrical device.
  • You work on the knot by moving plugs into free sockets.
  • The level is finished when no cable touches another, and the next level starts.
  • You cannot fail, so a session only ends when you leave the level.

Key features

  • The cables are shown in 3D and each one has its own color.
  • Only one cable can be unplugged at a time.
  • Free sockets are limited, so every move needs a plan.
  • The whole game is played with mouse clicks.

Tips & tricks

  • Start with the cable on the outside of the tangle and move it as far from the others as you can.
  • Trace one color from the plug up to the device before you touch anything.
  • If a move does not help, put the plug back and try a different socket. Moving wires back and forth is often how the knot opens up.
