Fin Freedom

Fin Freedom is a pin-pulling puzzle built around a fish, a network of underwater pipes and the movement of water. Your job is to work out which barriers should open so the fish can travel safely. Lava and predators make the order important: an opening that helps water reach one chamber can also connect it to a danger you should have kept separate.

Read the pipes before pulling a pin

The published interaction is a mouse click or tap on a pin. Before selecting one, follow the connected passages with your eyes. Locate the fish, the water and each visible hazard, then imagine what will change immediately after that barrier moves. A short path is not automatically a safe path if it releases a threat into the same space.

Think about the whole connection rather than the nearest obstacle. If several chambers share a passage, opening an upstream barrier can affect more than the section beside it. Ask where the liquid can flow next and whether the fish will have a usable route afterward. Wait to see the result of one action before choosing the next, so you can understand which change caused the movement.

Make each attempt answer a question

When a sequence fails, trace the first point where the safe route became unsafe. Perhaps a hazard gained access too early, or you released water before the next part of the route was ready. Use that observation to change the order on another attempt, rather than rapidly selecting every remaining pin.

This is a planning puzzle, so taking time to inspect the arrangement is part of playing well.
