Rotate the pieces in a 4×4 grid to join the inlet and outlet.
Build a steady rhythm
Take enough time to read a new position. If a game has a timer, learn its controls first rather than searching for them during the round. Use the example to check your reasoning.

A useful example
An elbow must point toward both adjacent pipe ends. Focus on why the action is allowed, not only its outcome. Keep the game’s format in mind.
Watch out for this
Visual proximity does not connect mismatched ends. A different version of the game may use a different rule. Compare the worked example with your own position. Use the reasoning, not an answer copied from a different board.
