Find a destination before moving the screw

Look for an empty hole that is not covered by a plank. Select the bolt you want to move, then click its new hole. Removing a support changes the board, so wait to see where the wood settles.

The aim is to release the planks, not merely shuffle bolts. Before the next move, check both the remaining supports and the spaces that are still available.

Keep one useful space available

A spare hole gives you a way to move the next bolt. Filling every easy space can leave a plank trapped across the holes you need. Plan the next destination as part of the current move.

The provider describes a timed puzzle; follow the timer and any current in-game offers. The nearby Controls card keeps the select-then-place sequence visible without scrolling below the board.

Quick controls and leaving the game

Check the destination before removing a bolt. A free hole now may become covered when a plank drops.

Choose Exit game in the toolbar to close the player. Reload opens a fresh game window and may end the current attempt. Reading a control card does not pause the game.
