A matching arrow pair clears a line in the real game
From the game — tap to play

Two arrows meet.
Everything between them leaves.

Tap an arrow It flies along its own axis. Where it stops is not up to you.
Find its pair It stops at the first perpendicular arrow of its own colour — both clear, and everything caught between them is swept up too.
Clear the board to win An empty board always advances you. Flow levels award 0–2 coins according to your moves; Smart always awards 1 coin for clearing the board.
Learn your tools gradually Rotate changes an arrow’s orientation, Undo returns the last move, and a Gem removes extra arrows. Preparation shows what is included and what you can buy for this level. Unused charges expire when a new attempt begins.

The rule takes a minute; the order is the craft. When you want to go deeper, the Pair Match strategy guide covers reading the board, protecting key arrows, and the endgame.

One journey, three kinds of puzzle

Follow a single trail of 280 levels. The opening teaches pairs, Flow and tools step by step. Later mixed packs change the pace with familiar board sizes and shapes, rather than making every next board larger.

Smart · plan the order Compact layouts with no new arrows. Every pair you leave behind matters. Think ahead and preserve partners; an available Undo charge lets you rethink a move.
Light · read the Flow Start on a full board. Every second successful move brings the announced batch. Extra matching arrows help you finish, especially near the end. Misses are free on the first 3 levels; from level 4, they count as moves without costing lives. Fewer moves earn more coins.
Expert · work with the shape Snowflake layouts appear within the same campaign. Flow can fill empty playable cells inside the shape; cut-out cells stay empty. Read across the gaps and use gems to remove extra arrows.

Every clear has a little spark

From the first satisfying pair to a busy Flow board: these are real game screens. Watch the path, use your tools and enjoy the moment the last arrows leave.

The level-cleared celebration and coin reward after a solved boardA bright little victory

A little energy.
All the time you need.

No clock on the board Nothing counts down while you think, and no streak punishes a pause. A board waits exactly as long as you need it to.
A hint when you want one Ask for a hint when you need another look. Spend an available Undo charge to rethink a move. Choose a flat board or 3D at 50°, 65° or 80°; Zoom in brings the arrows closer and Full board restores the whole view.
Glossy arrows. Candy-bright clears. Rounded arrows catch the light, shimmer with their own colour and spark when a pair connects. Two colour palettes keep the same bright, smooth feel. Change yours from Home or while you play.
Offline, no account All 280 included boards work offline in the app, and progress is saved on your device. No game account is needed. Google Play can restore a purchased No Ads entitlement.
A playful soundtrack Candy-bright shots, little rewards and a playful original score give each move a voice. Keep the effects and switch off the music, or mute everything: both controls are on Home.
Make every move count Clearing the board always completes the level. Flow awards zero, one or two coins according to your moves; Smart always awards one. Android and the full browser game hold up to 10 energy, enough for 10 level starts without spending coins.

Your next bright idea

One rule takes ten seconds to learn. The order takes rather longer.

Questions before the first tap

Can I play Pair Match online without downloading?Yes. Play the full campaign in your browser at crosswisearrows.com/play without an account or a download. Progress is saved on your device. The installed app also works offline.
Is Arrow Puzzle: Pair Match free?Yes. It is free to play in the browser and on Google Play. The app contains ads and optional purchases.
Does the game work offline?All 280 included campaign levels work offline in the installed app. The browser version needs an internet connection to load.
How do you play Arrow Puzzle: Pair Match?Tap an arrow along its row or column to reach the first perpendicular arrow of the same colour. The pair and every arrow between them disappear. A completely clear board always wins, even if some arrows remain in the Flow supply.
What if I run out of moves?In Flow levels, helpful extra arrows arrive when no pairs remain and near the end of the board. On the first 3 levels, misses cost neither a move nor a life. From level 4, Flow misses count as moves without costing lives. Smart adds no arrows: use an available Rotate or Undo, or try a different order.
How is the campaign organised?Light, Smart and Expert share one 280-level progression. The opening levels introduce the rules and tools; later mixed packs vary board sizes and shapes instead of growing without limit. Smart adds no new arrows and always awards one coin for a clear. Light and Expert have a regular Flow supply plus helpful extra arrows near the end or when no pairs remain.
How do Flow and boosters work?The regular Flow batch arrives every second successful move; helpful extra arrows can also arrive near the end or when no pairs remain. The next regular batch shows each arrow's colour and orientation before you move; positions are chosen afterwards from empty playable cells. Rotate, Undo and Gem boosters are introduced gradually. Preparation shows the charges included and available to buy for that level. Unused charges expire when a new attempt starts. Gems remove extra arrows, and the paid Gem booster has a random strength.
What happens after the last level?The campaign contains 280 levels. After the final board, your completed progress is saved and the game shows All levels complete. It does not generate an endless sequence of new boards.
