Arrow Sweep
A tap puzzle where one tapped arrow slides head-first off the board and shoves every arrow in its way out with it. Nothing is ever blocked and there are no lives: which arrow you tap first decides how many taps the board costs. Every board has a fewest-taps par, and beating it earns three stars. Play right in your browser. (Korean title: 화살 쓸기)
Key Features
- Nothing is ever blocked: A tapped arrow always leaves the board, and the arrows in front of it are shoved out with it. There are no hearts and no fail screen, and undo and restart are free.
- Beat par for three stars: Every board has a fewest-taps par proven by a solver. Finish within par for three stars. Tapping at random costs several taps over par, so reading the order is the fun.
- 150 boards in 5 worlds: First steps, long arrows, frost, tethered pairs and a mixed world hold 150 boards. Long, frozen and tethered arrows join one world at a time.
- A Daily board and 18 to collect: A new Daily board opens every day and your streak builds up. Collect 18 arrow skins, board themes and sweep trails. No server and no sign-up.
- One finger, no words: It is tap only with nothing to read, so anyone can start right away. It supports 12 languages and keeps working offline once loaded.
How to Use
- Tap one arrow on the board.
- It slides head-first off the board and shoves every arrow in its way out with it.
- Choose which arrow to tap first and clear the board in the fewest taps (par).

How It Works
The rules are code kept apart from the screen, and each board's par is computed and proven exhaustively by a solver. Our Js drew the arrows, boards, icon and screens in code, and sound effects are synthesized in code. No art was made with generative AI. AI tools were used during development. Music is "Easy Lemon" and "Clear Air" by Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com), CC BY 4.0, shortened and looped. Fonts are under the SIL Open Font License.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are there ads?
There are no ads on the game screens of the jworld.dev web version. Ads may appear on the intro page only. Portal versions show a rewarded ad only when you tap a bonus button such as a hint or double stars.
Do I need to install or sign up?
No. It runs right in your browser, and your stars and progress are saved only in that device's browser. Clearing browser data clears them.
Can I fail a board?
No. Nothing is ever blocked and there are no lives. Using more taps than par only means fewer stars, and undo and restart are free.
Is the art made with AI?
No. Our Js drew the arrows, boards and screens in code, and no generative-AI art is used. AI tools were used during development.
