Woodnuts Bolts Puzzle

Woodnuts Bolts Puzzle is a physics puzzle built on a single idea: nothing moves until the screws are out. It runs in the browser — no download, no account, no install.

The board is a wall of wooden planks, each pinned in place by bolts, and your job is to remove the bolts in an order that lets the structure come apart. That sounds simple until you notice the constraint — planks that are still held by a bolt cannot be removed, and a plank that falls can be exactly what was keeping another one in the air. Every board is therefore a sequence problem disguised as a demolition.

The physics does the teaching. A wrong order does not usually fail outright; it leaves the wall in a state where the remaining pieces are stuck, and you have to restart and think about which bolt you should have taken first. Because the levels are short, that discovery costs seconds rather than progress, which is what makes the puzzle format work.

It is a touch game that works the same with a mouse, and the boards stay readable on a phone screen.

On cool games spot this page is the index entry: cover, description, and search terms. The game itself is loaded from a third-party web build in an iframe on Play, so nothing is bundled into the site. It is filed under arcade and tagged puzzle, so it appears alongside the rest of the puzzle games in the catalog.
