Guide the Hero With Arrows

Arrow Pathway is a puzzle game by Robert Alvarez built around a beautifully simple mechanic: place directional arrows on a grid to redirect a character walking automatically toward the exit. The hero can't stop — they follow whatever arrow they step on, and every arrow you place is permanent once set. Solving each level means thinking several steps ahead to avoid hazards and dead-ends.

How to Play

Click an empty cell on the grid to place an arrow, then click again to cycle through directions (up, right, down, left). Press the play button to watch the hero move — if they walk off the board or into an obstacle, restart and reconsider your arrow placements. Later levels introduce multiple characters, teleporters, and locked gates requiring keys.

Tips

  • Plan the full route before placing any arrows — working backwards from the exit helps.
  • Watch for loops: placing two opposing arrows will trap the hero indefinitely.
  • Use the limited arrow count as a constraint that forces elegant solutions.
