About Butterfly Escape
Butterfly Escape is an engaging and delightful point-and-click game created by the talented developers at 8B Games/Games2live.

The genre lives on levels that teach one idea at a time, hints or undo options and a calm pace. Butterfly Escape understands that, and it shows in the first minute of play. Playing it works your patience and logic, which is a large part of why the "one more round" feeling is so strong.
How to play Butterfly Escape
- Start by clicking the big play button. Butterfly Escape loads inside the frame; give it a moment, especially on a slow connection.

- Read the whole level before your first move. Identify the goal, then look for the forced moves that must happen regardless.
- When you are comfortable, set a target: a score to beat, a level to clear or a time to shave. Small goals are what make Butterfly Escape stick.

Tips and tricks
- Count. Tiles, moves, colours, matches — many puzzles are secretly arithmetic, and a quick count reveals the plan.
- Work backwards from the goal. Ask what the final state has to look like, then ask what the state before that must be.
- Do not memorise solutions, memorise principles. The level after this one will use the same idea in a new arrangement.
- Look for forced moves — places where only one option is legal. Solving those first shrinks the problem.
- Because this is a Escape game, click everything once, then think — escape games reward a full inventory of clues.
