Daily Arrow Puzzle board for October 18: a dense square tangle of bent arrow paths under the Daily Challenge tab, Nightmare, 1 life

Daily Arrow Puzzle is a free browser puzzle in which a board is packed with bent arrow paths, and you tap them one by one to send them off the edge. An arrow can only leave if its whole straight exit is clear. The daily board is the same for everyone each UTC date and gives you a single life.

About Daily Arrow Puzzle

Arrow Puzzle is a free browser game with two parts: a Journey of 100 levels with three lives each, and a Daily Challenge. The board is a tangle of coloured paths, each ending in an arrowhead. Tap a path and it slides out of the board in the direction it points, as long as nothing lies in the way.

The catch is that the whole straight line from the arrowhead to the edge must be clear, including crossings far across the board. If a path is blocked, you trace the path in its way to its own arrowhead and follow that chain until you find one that can leave. A blocked tap costs a life.

The daily board is set at Nightmare difficulty, the same for every player on each UTC date, with one life, no guidance and no hint button. The page shows the date, a strip of the week, a streak counter and a countdown to the next board, and results can be shared without giving the solution away. The site is in English, Spanish and Japanese, and it also has how-to guides, strategy tips and level walkthroughs.

The page loads Google's AdSense script, though no ad slot showed around the board when we played; there is no sign-up or download before the daily.

How to play Daily Arrow Puzzle

Open the Daily Challenge for today's date.
Find an arrow whose whole straight line to the edge of the board is empty.
Tap it to launch it off the board, which may free the paths it was blocking.
Keep clearing arrows in a safe order; one blocked tap ends the daily attempt.
Share your result once the board is empty.

Tips

Check the full exit ray, not only the next few cells: a distant crossing still blocks.
Pinch to zoom on crowded crossings on a phone, then zoom back out before you tap.
Play some Journey levels first, where you have three lives, to learn how chains of blockers work.

Questions

Is Daily Arrow Puzzle free?

Yes. It plays in the browser with no download or account.

When does the daily board change?

At 00:00 UTC, with the same board for every player that day.

Are there hints?

No. Neither the daily nor the Journey levels has a hint button, and the daily gives you one life.

Can I replay the daily after a mistake?

Yes. A blocked tap ends the attempt, and a Restart button lets you try the same board again. Only one completion per UTC date counts toward your streak.
