Koi Lanes

Unblock puzzle

Daily challenge
Phones and computers

Koi Lanes is an unblock puzzle that plays in the browser on phones, tablets and computers, for one player. It has a daily challenge, the same for everyone that day.

Tap a koi and it swims out of the pond the way its head faces, if its lane is clear. A fish that bumps into another costs one of three lives, and from pond 3 lily pads turn passing fish 90 degrees. Empty the pond to move on; running out of lives deals a new layout.

Tips

Follow a lane past every lily pad before tapping: a pad turns the fish 90 degrees, so clear water straight ahead is not always where it ends up.
Stars equal the lives you keep, so every bump costs a star as well as a life; a clean pond is the only way to three stars.
At most 40 percent of the koi start with a clear lane, so most need another fish moved first; after a bump, the fish that was hit flashes.

What happens when I run out of lives in Koi Lanes?

The pond is lost, but you stay on the same pond number and get a new layout rather than the one you failed. Clearing a pond moves you to the next one and saves your progress. The daily pond is a single fixed layout, so it plays the same again.

Can a lily pad block a koi?

No. Pads are never placed under a fish and never stop one. A koi passing over a pad turns 90 degrees in the direction its curl shows, and then carries on to the edge or into the next fish. Pads appear from pond 3, one at first and up to four later.
