Signal Trace is a path-routing puzzle on a hex grid. Each level has transmitters that need to be connected to matching receivers; you draw paths between them. Bridges, relay nodes, and obstacles complicate the routing. Each transmitter has a decay timer, so finishing fast is part of scoring.
Quick-connect chains are the scoring multiplier. Solving adjacent transmitters back-to-back keeps a combo timer alive. Stopping to think breaks the chain.
Classic is the level-by-level puzzle progression. Interference adds noise that disrupts paths if you route through specific cells. Network Siege is a wave-defense mode where you're routing under attack. Cascade Protocol is multi-tier: solving one transmitter triggers the next, and chain timing is everything.
Relay Rush is the standout: a real-time mode where signals scroll continuously and you have to route them on the fly. It's more action than puzzle, and the leaderboard reflects that — top Relay Rush scores are heavily skewed toward fast routers.
Relay nodes extend signal decay timers. Routing through a relay before going to the receiver buys time for your harder routes elsewhere. Skipping relays to save path length almost always loses you points to decay penalties.
Use the freeze power cell on tight-decay levels. It pauses all timers for a few seconds — exactly long enough to plan the trickiest route on the board.
