HeadWater

Every gate changes the flow. 

HeadWater is an isometric water simulation puzzle game. Work the gates, watch the water move, and guide your boat through a maze of stone channels.

A clear route is only half the puzzle. You need the right water level, a well-timed opening, and a path that carries your boat to its destination.

Think with water

• Control the flow: interact with gates to change how water moves through the channels.
• Plan your passage: watch the water and choose when to let your boat through.
• Chase a better time: replay the puzzle and aim for the three-star target.
