I like playing “flowing pipe” games, where the object is to build a continuous pipe from pieces provided by the game to allow water to flow over some distance or to some destination, with the difficulty increasing as you complete each level.

Those of you who’ve followed along already know that I’ve accomplished this feat 4 times already: Way back in May, 2013, again on Jan. 13, 2024, for a 3rd time on Dec. 21, 2025, then only 63 days later on Feb. 22, 2026.

Now, 38 days later on March 28, 2026, I’ve done it again – and almost fulfilling my past prediction.

And take a look at that score: 100,000 points, at Level 16! Usually I’ve accomplished this on Level 1 – the easiest level – so this was unexpected, as was my final score almost 180,000 points.

Now I’m curious to see if there’s a way to consistently fill the board while playing…if the game will let me

“Pipe Puzzle” is an excellent re-creation of the classic LucasArts game and was written by Brianna Rainey. The game website itch.io has a copy of this game, click here to play it online. Thanks Brianna!
