Monkey Arrow Puzzle
The Monkey arrow puzzle is a free board whose arrow-lines are woven into the shape of a Monkey; you clear it by sliding every line off the edge of the board in the right order. A cheeky monkey with two big round ears on the sides of its head — instantly recognisable. In this free online puzzle the Monkey (one of the animals) is built from interlocking arrow-lines that fill every cell. Tap an arrow whose straight lane to the edge is clear and the whole line slides off, then keep clearing in the right order until every arrow has escaped the board.

How to play the Monkey puzzle
- Each arrow-line ends in a head that points the one way it can leave the board.
- Tap a line whose straight path to the edge is completely clear — the whole line slides off.
- Every line that leaves opens a lane for the ones trapped behind it, so the order you choose is the real puzzle.
- Tapping a blocked line bumps it and costs a heart, so read the lanes before you tap. Clear them all to win.
About the Monkey shape
The Monkey is one of Arrow Puzzle's 28 animals. Here it plays as a standalone, medium-hard board — the arrows weave through the Monkey and you free them one line at a time, in the only order that works. Clear it once and the Monkey is saved to your Shape Book; you can replay it whenever you like, and each board is freshly generated so the path out is never quite the same twice.
How to clear the Monkey
Animals are the busiest pictures, with legs, ears and tails all turning into lanes. On the Monkey, peel the outer limbs first — they have the clearest paths to the edge — then untangle the body once the outline is gone.
It plays like an arrow maze: the lines weave through each other without ever crossing, and the only way out is to read the lanes and pull them in the right order. Stuck? Restart for a fresh Monkey board, or warm up on the gentler boards in Arrow Escape.
Monkey arrow puzzle FAQ
How do you solve the Monkey arrow puzzle?
Find an arrow on the Monkey whose straight path to the edge of the board is empty, and tap it — the whole line slides off, opening lanes for the lines behind it. Work through the board in that order until every arrow has escaped. Tapping a blocked line costs a heart, so read the lanes first.
Is the Monkey arrow puzzle always solvable?
Yes. Every Monkey board is generated so there is always a valid order that clears it — no dead ends, just the puzzle of finding the order.
Does clearing the Monkey unlock it in my Shape Book?
It does. Clear the Monkey once and it lights up in your Shape Book, a collection saved in your browser so you can come back and complete the whole set of shapes.
What does the finished Monkey look like?
The arrows are arranged into the shape of the Monkey, so the whole board reads as a Monkey picture. As you clear the lines in order, the Monkey slides apart piece by piece until the board is empty — and the picture is saved to your Shape Book.
Is Arrow Puzzle free to play?
Yes — every shape, level and daily board is completely free. It runs in your browser with no download and no sign-up, on phone, tablet or desktop.
Do I need to download or install anything?
No. Arrow Puzzle is a web game that loads instantly in any modern browser, and it keeps working offline once the page has opened — nothing to download.
Can I play Arrow Puzzle unblocked at school or work?
Yes. Because it runs entirely in the browser with nothing to install, Arrow Puzzle works as an unblocked game anywhere a browser is allowed — no plugins, no app store.
Does it work on mobile and PC?
Both. The board scales to your screen, so it plays the same on a phone, tablet or desktop PC — tap or click an arrow to slide its line off the board.
Are the puzzles always solvable?
Always. Every board is generated and checked so there is at least one valid order that clears it — there are no dead ends, only the challenge of finding the order.
