These traps are a tangled mess of wires. Cut the right cord and you’ve saved the day and scored a bounty of fruit. Cut the wrong cord and you and the food are toast! Un-tangle the wires to learn which one you can safely cut and swipe it fast! Beware of short-circuiting the trap or you’ll lose precious seconds. And stay away from those spines! They may look like delicious lychee fruit but they’ll spray goo all over and slow you down. That timer’s always ticking, don’t let it get to zero or else…

Tangle Trap is a unique and free to play story puzzle game for iOS with Story and Challenge Modes.

Tangle Trap’s story mode features classic JRPG story telling. Play as Chi-Chi the Chinchilla as he works to save the forest’s food from Hoarus, the curmudgeonly Raven, who has stolen and booby-trapped every last bit of it! The woodland creatures and their families are going hungry and you’re their last hope! Along the way you’ll meet a band of characters to help you take back every last bit of grub.

Challenge Mode provides a whole other world of gameplay. With customizable tangles, puzzle size, and difficulty levels, you’ll never lack for a perfectly challenging puzzle. Add in online, worldwide leaderboards, and you’ve got the ability to challenge friends from around the globe for top scores!

Tangle Trap natively supports both the iPad, iPhone, and iPod Touch with custom art for each screen size.

• Chi Chi Chinchilla

  Chi Chi the Chinchilla has traveled from the cold, barren mountains in search of food, only to find the forest just as lacking. But with his newfound friends, he has the chance to make the forest a warm, happy place again.

• Ripley Rabbit

  Ripley Rabbit is Chi Chi's trusted sidekick. Ripley's natural skills let him dig out traps hidden underground. His quick bunny reflexes also ensure there's always plenty of time to solve the puzzle at hand.

• Frank the Flying Squirrel

  With his web-like appendages, Frank the Flying Squirrel can glide through the treetops, reaching stashes of food otherwise out of reach. Franks wild antics and funny faces also provide tons of laughs for our band of heroes.

• Butterfly Brian

  The wise old Butterfly, Brian, is the brains of the group. Brian is able to decipher how the traps work and seems to have an intuitive notion when something in them has changed.

• Sir Sire Squirrel

  Sir Sire Squirrel has a big family to feed and needs lots of acorns for the Winter. Fortunately, he can find his way into tree trunks to dig out all the acorns Hoarus has stashed inside. Even better, his dextrous fingers make working the traps a snap!

• Hoarus the Raven

  Hoarus the Raven is an old and greedy bird. One Winter Hoarus almost starved. From that point on, he worked to gather as much food as possible, even if it was more than he needed. Over the years, Hoarus has forgotten how it felt to go hungry and is obsesses with collecting as much food as possible.
