Train Tracks scatters track pieces across a grid, all facing the wrong way. Tap each one to rotate it, and keep going until every piece links up into an unbroken route from one side to the other. Then the train runs and the level is done.
This is the pipe-rotation puzzle in its friendliest form. What makes it satisfying rather than fiddly is that every piece has only a few possible orientations, so the puzzle is about seeing the whole route rather than fighting the controls. The moment the last piece clicks into place is the entire appeal.
Start from the fixed ends. The entry and exit points cannot move, so the pieces next to them have very few valid orientations. Working inward from both ends meets in the middle far faster than starting in the centre.
Look at corners and straights differently. A straight piece has only two useful positions and a corner has four, so lock in the straights first. They constrain everything around them.
Follow the route with your eyes before touching anything. Tracing the path you intend to build costs nothing and saves rotations, and your score is the number of turns you used.
Do not spin pieces repeatedly hoping something fits. Each unnecessary rotation counts against you, so it is worth pausing to work out the correct orientation and going there directly.
Tap it and it turns a quarter turn. Keep tapping to cycle through its orientations.
By the number of rotations used, so working out the route before you start pays off.
An unbroken track from the entry point to the exit, with every piece connected.
No. You can take as long as you like to plan the route.
