Stuck in ArrowMela? How to Find the Next Free Arrow

When an ArrowMela board looks locked: start at the edges, follow each arrow's line, free the arrows that block most, check rotating ones.

Start from the edges

Arrows on the outside of the board that point outward usually have a clear path already. Clear those first; each one you remove opens a line for the arrows behind it.

Follow the line, not the arrow

Before you tap, trace the straight line in front of an arrow to the edge of the board. If anything sits on that line, the arrow cannot leave yet. This one habit solves most "locked" boards.

Free the arrows that block the most

Some arrows sit in the path of several others. Work out what is blocking that arrow and clear it first, and a whole group of moves opens at once.

Rotating arrows

A rotating arrow changes the direction it will fly. Check where it points right before you tap it, and use it when it faces open space.

Take it slowly

In Zen mode there is no timer, so there is no cost to looking at the whole board before your first tap. Most levels are solved in your head before they are solved on the screen.
