"HOOK" in IOS

Unhook the hooks

Walkthrough, Guilds, Tips on this special game

Our Expert Score

89/100

Hook is a beautiful example of 'less is more' in game design. There is no score, no timer, and no tutorial—just you and a series of interconnected circuits. The goal is to retract all the 'hooks' without them bumping into each other. It sounds simple, but as the levels progress into complex webs of switches and nodes, it becomes a brilliant logic test.

The sound design is particularly noteworthy; every click and retraction provides a tactile, auditory satisfaction that makes the experience feel like you're operating a real mechanical device. It’s a calm, meditative puzzle game that respects the player's intelligence by letting them discover the rules through experimentation. A perfect palette cleanser between more intense games.

Hook is a minimalist puzzle game from developer Maciej Targoni. The game features a clean, schematic-like interface consisting of lines, hooks, and switches. Players must tap the circular nodes to retract the lines, but they must do so in the correct order to ensure that no moving parts collide. With no pressure and a soothing ambient soundtrack, Hook offers a pure logic experience that slowly introduces new mechanical elements like wireless transmitters and rotators.
