Loopy River on Inkwell Games for Saturday 3 October: a 9x10 grid with black blocks and a few river segments already drawn, the weekday picker above and Undo and Check beside it

Loopy River is a daily loop-drawing puzzle from Inkwell Games. You drag a single river through the grid so that it passes through every open cell and closes into one loop.

About Loopy River (Inkwell Games)

Loopy River is one of the daily logic puzzles at Inkwell Games, a small puzzle site that also publishes Fields, Stars and Mosaic. Each puzzle is dated, and a row of weekday buttons lets you move between the days of the current week.

The goal is simple to state: draw one continuous loop that flows through every cell of the board. You tap and drag to lay the river down, and Undo, Reset and Check buttons help you fix mistakes. A timer records how long you take.

The daily puzzle is free. A subscription unlocks the archive (for Loopy River it goes back to 4 May 2026) and extras such as replaying puzzles and a highlighter for notes.

How to play Loopy River (Inkwell Games)

Open Loopy River and pick today's date from the weekday row.
Tap a cell and drag to draw the river.
Pass through every open cell exactly once.
Join the ends so the river forms one closed loop, then press Check.

Tips

Cells in corners can only be entered and left one way, so draw those bends first.
Look for narrow passages where the river is forced to go straight through.
