About this game

Build the path. Outsmart your opponent.

Planks and Arrows is a strategic puzzle adventure where every step matters.

Place planks to shape the playfield, create new routes, block your rivals, and guide your pawns toward victory. Each turn changes the layout of the match, turning every game into a fresh tactical challenge.

But beyond the matches lies a handcrafted world full of mysteries, strange characters, and hidden secrets. Your beloved bird Henry has vanished, and the only clues left behind are a trail of feathers…

A Strategy Game Where You Build the Playfield

Every turn is a choice:

  • Place a new plank to expand the playfield

  • Create shortcuts or cut off opponents

  • Move your pawns using directional tiles

  • Race to guide 3 pawns into the enemy goal

Because planks are drawn in random order, no two matches ever play the same.

Easy to learn, deeply strategic, and endlessly replayable.

Explore a Whimsical World

Journey through colorful biomes filled with puzzles, quests, and curious inhabitants.

Some characters challenge you to tactical matches. Others need help solving environmental riddles or navigating difficult paths with limited resources.

As you travel deeper into the world, the mystery surrounding Henry slowly unfolds.

Whether you're solving puzzles, exploring the world, or mastering competitive play, every match offers a new strategic experience.
