Play Pipe Panic online
Pipe Panic is a pipe-twisting puzzle starring Pip the plumber's apprentice, racing a 5:00 water clock.
Every room is a 6x6 grid of rotatable pipes - straights, elbows and crosses - with one TAP and one DRAIN.
Blue pipes are already fed by the TAP; follow the blue to see how close your connection is.
Later rooms grow longer and windier, and rusted pipes (brown bolts) lock in place.
How to control Pipe Panic
- Click / tap: rotate a pipe 90 degrees clockwise
- R: restart the run
- M: mute
How to play
- 1
Click or tap any pipe to rotate it 90 degrees clockwise.
- 2
Connect the TAP (top-left) to the DRAIN (bottom-right) to complete the room.
- 3
Pipes with brown bolts are rusted solid and cannot rotate - plan around them.
- 4
Clear all 8 rooms before the 5:00 timer runs out. Fewer rotations = higher score.
Tips for a better run
Follow the blue: pipes already connected to the TAP glow blue - extend from the blue frontier.
Elbows are the whole puzzle: straights only have 2 states, elbows have 4 - fix elbows first.
Crosses pass water in all directions, so they never block you - ignore them when planning.
Count your clicks: level score is 1000 minus 20 per rotation, so think before you twist.
