Branchline: Train Tracks Live

Branchline is a Train Tracks logic puzzle. You get a grid, a number beside every row and column, and a couple of pieces of track already laid. Your job is to work out where the rest of the line runs. The numbers do the telling. Each one counts how many cells in that row or column carry track. There is nothing to guess: every board has exactly one solution, and reasoning alone will always get you there. If you like nonograms, sudoku or slitherlink, this is that kind of thinking on a railway map. HOW TO PLAY Tap a cell and pick a piece. There are six of them, two straights and four curves. Two more markers let you think out loud. Use one when you know track passes through a cell but not yet which piece it is. Use the other when you have proved a cell stays empty. Undo and redo as much as you want, and erase anything. WHAT IS IN IT Five grid sizes, 1,000 puzzles in each: Easy 5x5 Gentle 6x6 Medium 8x8 Hard 10x10 Expert 12x12 Inside every size the puzzles are ordered by measured difficulty, so puzzle 1 is the gentlest board of that size and puzzle 1,000 is the most stubborn one. The ramp runs inside a level, not just between levels. A NEW PUZZLE EVERY DAY One board for everyone, every morning. Solve it and you can share how it went the way people share a Wordle grid, without giving the answer away. Miss a day and the next one is still waiting. YOUR PROGRESS Puzzles solved, current streak, longest streak, time played, and how many you finished without a hint. Best and average times for every difficulty. A month view of the daily puzzle so you can see where the gaps are. All of it stays on your phone. QUIET BY DESIGN No account, no sign up, no email address. Nothing about you is collected, stored or transmitted. It opens and plays with no connection at all, which is the whole point of a puzzle you take on a train. The clock counts up and nothing ever expires. There is no countdown, no lives and no move limit. Take an hour over one board if you feel like it. Light and dark themes, five board styles, and one hint per puzzle for when a grid will not give.
