What is the Tethered Tails puzzle game?

Tethered Tails is a physics puzzle game by Ka’blooie Games. Turn layers of a cube of rooms, cut the rope holding a tennis ball, then use gravity to guide it to Gravl, a German Shepherd puppy. It is unrelated to similarly named fitness products.

How do I cut the rope in Tethered Tails?

Make a layer move that shears the rope between moving and stationary rooms. A whole-cube camera turn changes your view and does not cut it. Plan before the cut; the race starts when the ball is free.

Can I play without tilt controls?

Yes. Choose the left- or right-handed on-screen pad in Settings. If you use tilt, RECENTER sets your comfortable holding angle as the reference.

How many Tethered Tails levels are free?

The current campaign has 100 levels. Levels 1–30 are free 2×2 puzzles. Pro covers 3×3 levels 31–50 and 76–88; Expert covers 4×4 levels 51–75 and 89–100.
