“A great new game full of tiny yet challenging and well designed puzzles. Each puzzle is on a small 5x5 grid where you must navigate to activate all the light while avoiding monsters and traps.”

About This Game



Glitches are trapped in the city! Go city witch, fly between rooftops to light the ancient runes of power. Light them to complete the ritual and set the glitches free.

Beware! Glitches take on many forms. They haunt the rooftops as traps, spooks, and dark things that skitter. Scaredy cats will block your path and fearsome beasts will face you. Learn their movements to outwit them, and you'll progress to new cities with new challenges.

Cityglitch is a game of small, bite-sized puzzles. Take turns moving around the board as glitches move and react to you. If a glitch catches you it will restart the level, but don't worry, with each attempt you'll learn more clues to complete it. Cityglitch starts with simple puzzles but ramps up quickly to challenge you!

  • Each puzzle is a 5x5 board of tiles
  • Press on your character to see available moves
  • Click to move to any tile that you can reach
  • You can move any number of tiles in a straight line (like a queen in chess)
  • Pass over runes to light them
  • Light all the runes to complete the level
  • Avoid enemies by understanding their movements
  • Use UNDO to go back one turn
  • Use RESTART to try the level again
  • Complete levels in the fewest possible turns to master them
