Flow Free: Shapes is the newest twist on Big Duck Games\' Flow series

by Noah Jan 06,2025

Flow Free: Shapes, the latest puzzle game from Big Duck Games, puts a new twist on the classic pipe-connecting gameplay. This time, you'll guide colorful flows around various shapes, ensuring all connections are complete without overlaps.

The core mechanics remain familiar to fans of the Flow Free series: connect same-colored lines to create complete flows. However, the introduction of shape-based grids adds a fresh challenge. With over 4000 free puzzles, plus Time Trial and Daily Puzzle modes, there's plenty to keep you entertained. The game builds upon previous iterations like Flow Free: Bridges, Hexes, and Warps, but focuses on the unique spatial challenges presented by different geometric forms.

While the game delivers exactly what its title promises – a shape-focused iteration of the Flow Free formula – the decision to fragment the series into separate releases based solely on grid design feels somewhat arbitrary. Despite this minor criticism, Flow Free: Shapes remains a high-quality puzzle experience. Available now on iOS and Android, it's a must-have for fans of the series.
