How to play

A simple guide to Pond Paddle

Steer a growing boat trail around the pond to collect eight lily blossoms.

Rules for this version

  1. Use the direction buttons or arrow keys / WASD to paddle. Step-by-step moves once per action.
  2. Collect the blossom to grow your trail. You cannot reverse directly into yourself.
  3. Gather eight blossoms. Gentle edges wrap around; other paces have banks. A bump pauses so you can regroup and keep your blossoms.

Comfort and accessibility

  • Step-by-step is the default: nothing moves until you act. Flow is optional and can be paused.
  • Large labeled controls work with touch and keyboard. P or Escape pauses.
  • Leaving the tab pauses the round. Progress is stored on this device and restores waiting for you.
