Each puzzle consists of a rectangular lattice of dots with some clues in various places. The object is to connect the dots surrounding each clue so that the number of lines equals the value of the clue and the lines around all clues form one continuous loop with no crossings or branches. Empty squares may be surrounded by any number of lines.
The game features 2-finger tapping for quick zoom, auto complete clues setting and a link segment highlighting option to help to avoid creating separate loops.
For more fun, Conceptis Slitherlink includes a Weekly Bonus section providing an extra free puzzle each week.

fantastic puzzle game

just wish there was more than one free puzzle a week after you finish the 3 free packs.
This is one of my favourites

Conceptis has done it again. The thought that has gone into these puzzles is amazing. Do the free ones, then buy more. They're addictive. Edited to add that I am getting better and better at these. They are currently my number one favourite Conceptis puzzle!
Very nice interface

This is the best interface for SlitherLink I have tried. I haven't attempted the in game purchase yet, but probably will just because of the interface being very smooth and intuitive. It would be nice to have some of the auto complete features of the web site, like automatically marking the 0's.
Great puzzles, clumsy execution

The puzzles themselves are challenging and fun, requiring a different set of logic and thinking than other puzzle games. The only thing keeping this game from getting five stars, though, is the execution. In a previous review I complained about the zoom feature, noting that it doesn't always recognize zoom gestures have been made. This problem has been fixed, but it still doesn't let you zoom in as close as you'd like, and it's also still far too easy to tap a segment you didn't intend. It would be nice to have something not unlike what exists in the Fill-a-Pix game where, if a box is marked with a 1 and you know which one side is filled in, that a tap would automatically mark the other three sides as not filled.
SO ADDICTIVE!!

This game is so much fun. You have the option to check the # of errors, without seeing where the mistakes actually are. Awesome feature for folks who don't like to cheat. ;)
