Screw Puzzle

Planks are held by screws. Pick up a screw and put it into another free hole — you can never throw one away. A plank with no screws falls; a plank held by just one screw swings down around it. Drop every plank to win. Planks lie in layers and lock the screws beneath them, and a swinging plank can hook onto another screw — the order of your moves is the puzzle.

4–5 planks and plenty of free holes.

Free online screw puzzle

Screw Puzzle is inspired by the popular wood nuts & bolts games: wooden planks are pinned to a board with screws and the only thing you can do is move a screw into another empty hole. Each move changes the board — planks fall away or swing down and cover or uncover holes.

Every level on PuzzleWorld is generated and checked by a solver, so it can always be cleared; your score is best when you need no more moves than the shortest solution. Free holes are scarce, so think about which plank should go first and where a swinging plank will end up.
