About The Wire
The Wire is a casual puzzle game with multiple levels of varying difficulty. You guide an electronic controller along a track, avoid its traps and reach the finish before time runs out.
Navigate the track
Place the controller’s joystick in the starting ring to begin; the ring turns green when the level starts. A level ends if time runs out, the joystick touches the track, or its tip moves ahead of or behind the track plane. A red indicator means the tip is at a dangerous distance from the track, while blue indicates a safe distance. You can adjust the track’s height with the up and down buttons on the disc.
Score each level
Each level has a base score, with additional points calculated from the time remaining when you finish.
