Press and hold the green START cell, then drag your finger through the grid to draw a signal path to the END cell. Avoid gray wall cells — they block your signal. Reach the END before the countdown timer hits zero to complete the level.
Collect gold tPA syringe powerups along the way to blast through wall cells and open new routes.
Why did my progress reset?
Progress is saved locally on your device. Deleting and reinstalling the app will reset your progress. Restoring from an iCloud or iTunes backup will restore it.
The timer feels too short — is that intentional?
Yes! The time pressure is the core challenge. Each level has a par time — completing it quickly earns more stars. With practice, you'll find faster routes.
What does the tPA syringe powerup do?
Dragging through a gold syringe cell activates a tPA burst that clears surrounding wall cells, opening new paths through the grid.
How do I earn 3 stars on a level?
Stars are based on how efficiently you complete the level — specifically how close your step count is to the optimal (par) path. Finish under par for 3 stars.
Does Brain Zap require an internet connection?
No. Brain Zap works fully offline. No account, login, or network connection is required.
Is Brain Zap free?
Yes — Brain Zap is completely free with no ads and no in-app purchases.
