    WELCOME BACK.

    Ride the rising tide.

    Find your next switch.
    Reach the golden finish.

    Water level: LOW

    Three water levels. One route to the finish.

    How the classic pool works

    Yellow switches set low water, green switches set middle water, and blue switches set high water. A passage available at one level may disappear at another. Before changing the water, check which switch you can reach next.

    What’s classic, and what’s new?

    Classic mode adapts the Pastoria Gym puzzle for a flat, four-direction browser grid, without battles. Custom challenges use new pool layouts. Open Info for a short explanation of the puzzle mechanics.

    Info · Pastoria

    Step onto switches to change the whole pool: yellow lowers it, green sets middle water, blue raises it. Connect a route to the golden finish.

    Walkway marks show safe water levels: one notch low, two middle, three high. Pale platforms work at every level.

    Game controls

    Undo: 0 moves available

    Arrows / WASD move · Z undoes · E returns · R restarts. You can also use the D-pad or swipe.

    YOUR NEXT PUZZLE

    Make your next pool.

    Choose the size and minimum route length. Every accepted pool meets both your minimum walking steps and minimum water changes, with a verified route to the finish from every reachable state.

    Winding waterways keeps the original generator and its existing seed settings.

    Fewer misleading switchesMore misleading switches
    Directional biasMore varied turns

    Minimum targets are lower bounds, not exact lengths. Lowering a minimum may keep the same seeded layout. For shorter routes, try smaller size or mechanism-count settings where available.

    Same seed and settings replay the same pool. Demanding settings may exceed the bounded search.
