A Simple Square is a minimalist puzzle game where every move changes the level. Slide in straight lines, erase the tiles behind you, plan your path, and reach the exit without trapping yourself.
One square. One rule. Lots of traps.A Simple Square is a minimalist puzzle game where every move changes the level.
Choose a direction, and your square slides in a straight line until it hits an obstacle. But there is one essential rule: every tile you cross disappears behind you.
An open path can close behind you. An obvious route can doom you. To reach the exit, moving forward is not enough: you have to plan the exact order of your moves.
Easy to understand, demanding to masterA Simple Square is not about reflexes, but about reading the grid, anticipating your path, and using logic. Each level is short, readable, and built around a clear idea, but a single wrong decision can block the entire solution.
Throughout the campaign, new mechanics enrich the rules without betraying the simplicity of the concept: stop tiles, forced directions, keys, doors, teleporters, hazards, blocks, and other variations that gradually change the way you think.
Content240 levels spread across more than 8 worlds.
World-based progression, with new mechanics introduced step by step.
Short and precise levels, designed to be understood quickly and solved methodically.
A medal system to optimize your solutions and aim for the ideal number of moves.
An Infinite mode featuring procedurally generated puzzles.
A Speedrun mode with timers, segments, and leaderboards.
Steam achievements and leaderboards to extend the challenge.
Every move mattersThe board looks simple. The rule takes only a few seconds to understand. But once you start sliding, every decision leaves a permanent trace.
Move carefully. The path behind you will not stay open.
