Opening Strategy & Walkthrough
1. Initial Border Sweep
Focus first on the tail feather tips pointing east along the right edge. Clearing these 8 tail arrows instantly frees up the vertical spine, allowing you to approach the rooster's beak from behind.
2. Key Blocker Obstacle
The rooster's beak creates a dense double-lock in the upper-left quadrant. Avoid tapping the beak arrows until the crown feathers above are removed.
3. General Arrow Logic Rule
An arrow leaves the board only when every cell between its head and the outer edge is clear of non-removed arrows. Removing one arrow unlocks the lanes behind it.
