Can you keep the power flowing in Tiny Connections’ peaceful puzzles? Help your teeny town thrive by building electrical grids and pipelines to connect homes to wind turbines and water towers. As more houses appear, you’ll have to get creative to link each one to its colour-matched utility. Don’t run out of pipes and cables...or it could be lights out!

What we love: Building a beautiful, efficient network. The goal is to keep the town going for 30 days without any homes losing power or water, and that’s trickier than it sounds! You’ll feel like an engineering superstar when you craft tunnels to link far-flung houses to a power station or divert a pipeline after a new home pops up right in the middle of it.

Quick tip: White wind turbines and water towers can be changed to any colour on the map, but don’t lock them in until you need them. When a purple house appears on the opposite side of town from your lone purple water tower, that extra utility station could be a lifesaver.

Meet the creator: Swedish indie game company Short Circuit Studios likes to keep things small—they also made the merge puzzler Teeny Tiny Town. The wind turbines in Tiny Connections were inspired by Sweden’s passion for green energy and the environment.
