Bolts and Nuts: Academy

Loose metal bars fill the board in Bolts and Nuts: Academy. This puzzle game uses bolts, nuts, and empty holes as the whole setup, with logic tests and attention-based decisions on every board. A wrong removal can block the rest of the layout and end the attempt. No timer appears, and points stack up as the academy boards are solved.

How to play?

Examine the full layout before touching a fastener, then pick the bolt that frees space without trapping another bar. Free holes serve as temporary spots for moved pieces, which shift the layout and create room for the next move. Sliding a bolt into an empty opening finishes the arrangement once all bars are released. Rising board complexity appears with each new round, requiring tighter order selection to avoid a loss.
