Wonderbound
Compose the page with nine swaps, declare how greedy you are, then turn it — and watch the loose glyphs tumble while your formations hold.
Open the book The new art, playable · gem glyphsWonderbound v2
The same game on the new pieces — the current build. Every glyph is cut as a real gemstone, rendered in Blender and pre-baked into sprites: light glides across the facets at rest, and the stones turn for real on the spin. Variants below change the grid, the board size and the icon size.
Open v2 Prototype iteration 4 · the master specWonderbound v4
The build of the master specification. An 8 × 15 page of solid tiles with no seam between them, chapters of two and three pages that restart as one, keepsakes drafted between pages and reset on every attempt, the Gilded Cell, wild glyphs, locked glyphs, full lines and enclosures, and the Golden Page that sweeps the whole board. A spin is spent only when a chapter ends short. The profile multipliers and all 460 page targets were solved by simulation at this board size.
Open v4 Prototype iteration 3 · The LibraryWonderbound v3
The new build from the iteration-3 guide: an 8 × 11 page, one node per page in a hundred-page Library, profiles that unlock as you read (Whisper only until page 10), the LOOSE counter beside CERTAIN, crates and walls, stars, One More Turn, and spins spent only when a page reads short. Every target was derived by simulation.
Open v3 The previous lookWonderbound v2 · Flat icons
The same v2 with the flat icon glyphs, kept for comparison.
Open the flat edition Look study · solid tiles, whole screenSolid tiles
The screen covered edge to edge by solid enamel tiles — no book behind — each one modelled and lit in Blender with the glyph raised and chamfered on its face, and pre-baked so it can turn in real 3D. Tap a tile to flip it; the bar below switches the resting motion.
