Puzzles tagged: Hourglass

Hourglass puzzles evoke sand, symmetry, and the steady passage of time. Expect visuals with twin chambers, flowing grains, mirrored halves, and silhouettes of glass and shadow. Mechanically they often explore inversion, gravity, limited resources, countdowns, and transferring or measuring units of time — think flip-based mechanics, constrained moves, or puzzles that reveal answers as sand settles. Mood ranges from meditative and elegant to quietly tense; designs favor minimalism, rhythm, and deliberate pacing. Perfect for players who enjoy thinking in sequences, balance, and temporal logic.
