In short

Counterglow: Linked Orbits is a puzzle game where each turn rotates a linked pair of orbits in opposite directions, with the aim of restoring every symbol to a target pattern. It offers 72 puzzles across six chapters, a daily puzzle, unlimited practice, and works fully offline with no account or ads. A standout detail is that symbols mark each tile, so the game does not rely on color alone.

About

A little space to think.

In Counterglow, a single turn changes two places. Choose a linked pair of orbits: one rotates clockwise, the other counterclockwise. Bring every symbol back to the target pattern.

Start with a small turn. Learn how the pairs connect. Find a different perspective when the solution feels just out of reach.

THE WHOLE GAME, INCLUDED • 72 journey puzzles across six open chapters • A fresh daily puzzle, shared by UTC date • Open sky: unlimited generated practice • Unlimited undo and guides from your current board • A full-size target for easy comparison • Local progress and best turn counts

YOUR OWN PACE No countdowns, ads, subscriptions, energy meters or in-app purchases. Sound and haptics are optional. Symbols distinguish every tile without relying on color alone. Choose a light or dark appearance.

Counterglow works entirely offline. No account, tracking or third-party analytics. Progress stays on your device; there is no cloud sync.

Two orbits. One quiet moment.
