Nodes of a Feather

Nodes of a Feather is an abstract logic line-drawing puzzle game where you connect nodes over graph-like structures. Each level gives you an arrangement of dots (nodes) with pairs of dull, unactivated lines (edges) that can be toggled to create connections. To complete levels, you’ll need to activate either one of the edges in each pair and fulfill requirements on the number of nodes stringed together.

The nodes and the edges in a level are either blue or red. You can activate edges, connecting several nodes together in a new group. Some nodes have numbers on them, denoting the size of the group they should be a part of by the end of the level. Additionally, the edges come in intersecting pairs, and either the blue edge or the red edge in each pair should be activated. So, you’ll need to figure out how to activate a single edge at each intersection in a way that fulfills all numbered nodes.

Nodes of a Feather is a tricky puzzle game that is best solved with methodical logic rather than wild guesses. Still, if you’re stuck you can always skip to the next level. The number of edges you have activated in a level is displayed in the top right corner; if you’ve missed some of them, because of the stripped-down visuals it may take a moment to assess which edge pairs you should pay attention to.
