Circuit Shepherd

The grid never waits. Circuit Shepherd is a real-time routing puzzle about guiding autonomous energy packets through a live circuit. Rotate conduits, toggle gates, switch junctions, store packets in capacitors, respect one-way diodes, filter colors, time pulse gates and transform energy spectra before a packet commits to the wrong route. The campaign builds from simple routing into layered timing and spectrum puzzles, then ends in the Shepherd Nexus with multi-system mastery challenges. After the campaign, the optional Mastery Grid pushes for cleaner and more efficient solutions. Play beyond the campaign with two offline-first modes: • Daily Dispatch — a deterministic local-date challenge with the same seed for the day. • Expedition — a five-stage seeded run with escalating constraints and local best results. Features: • 45 handcrafted campaign levels • 12 optional Mastery Grid trials • Touch-first real-time circuit routing • Three-star optimization with local best interactions and time • Deterministic Daily Dispatch and Expedition modes • Keyboard and basic gamepad support • Reduce Motion, haptics controls and accessibility semantics • Fully offline gameplay and local-only progress • No ads, no in-app purchases, no account and no tracking
