In the pirate plank puzzle, pirates move toward their ship while the player moves or rotates a single plank to help them cross gaps.
Watch where the pirates are headed
The pirates move across the screen toward their ship. Look ahead to see which gap interrupts the crossing.
Move the plank to make a crossing
Move or rotate the plank among its top, middle, and bottom positions before the pirates reach a gap. Watch how its new position forms a way across.
Help the crew reach the ship
As the pirates move, keep an eye on the next gap and change the plank’s position when needed. For a puzzle where the route itself is built by connecting tiles, try the path-building activity.
