Game Summary

electrode is a circuit-drawing puzzle on a grid. A power source and a target bulb sit on the board, and you trace paths along edges so current flows without breaking the rules—no illegal crossings, no missing required tiles on later stages.

Rules of Thumb

Plan the full route before you draw. One-way segments and bridge tiles appear in mid-game levels, forcing you to enter from the correct side or use a tile only once. Filling every highlighted cell is often a win condition separate from simply connecting A to B, so a shortcut that lights the bulb but skips a mandatory square fails the stage. When multiple bulbs share a source, order matters: solve the shortest branch first so longer paths do not block remaining lanes. Undo helps on builds that allow it—use undo to test a branch instead of resetting the entire grid after one wrong turn.

What are the controls?

Drag along grid lines to lay wire; tap undo to remove the last segment where available.

Audience

Logic puzzle fans, electricity-curriculum students, and players who prefer thinking over reflexes.

What stands out?

Grid path drawing • One-way tiles • Full-board coverage goals • No timer on most stages • Progressive constraints

Should you play it?

A calm brain teaser that feels different from tile matchers—each stage is a small routing problem with one clean solution.
