ABOUT THE GAME
Puzzle to find rules from the board
``Thread'' is a puzzle where you deduce the meaning of the clue itself. When you move the tip on the white board, the yellow thread stretches, allowing you to visually follow the relationship between the lines and the symbols.
FOLLOW THE THREAD
Thread path and tip position
The thread path changes as you move, and the gray tip indicates the current position. Change the route and way you approach the symbol, and think about the relationship with the clues.

Stretch the line and test your ideas
If you move the tip with the arrow keys, a yellow thread will remain on the board. Think about the route you want to take while comparing the white squares, the black spaces, and the positions of the symbols.
Bring the discovered rules to page 51
The entire work has 7 rules and 51 sides to discover. In the introduction, you are informed that the rules themselves will not change, and you can use the meaning you found as a clue on the next board.
Go back and reconfigure your hypothesis
Press Z to cancel and press R to start over the board. You can return to level selection with Esc, so you can re-enter the area you're interested in and consider a different route.

- Language
- The menu and introductory instructions are in English, but the main task is to observe the relationship between symbols and lines on the board. It is not a format where you read individual rules from English text, but once you understand the basic operations, you can work on it without reading English.

- Press X on the start screen and select level 1 with X. The installation proceeds with X. Move the gray tip with the arrow keys and compare the stretching yellow thread with the symbol on the board.
