I Need Water: A Race Against Time to Save Flipper
### Pipe Dreams: Flipper's Thirst Quencher
**I Need Water** takes the well-loved **pipe-connecting puzzle** format and adds a delightful, high-stakes premise: **saving a fish named Flipper**. The gameplay is intuitive: you're presented with a grid of incomplete and jumbled pipe sections. Your mission, as Sam's stand-in plumber, is to **tap or click to rotate** these tiles and forge a continuous pipeline from the water source to Flipper's empty aquarium.
What makes this game exciting is the **time challenge**. While simply solving the puzzle earns you a basic star, the real test of your 'plumber skills' is achieving the three-star rating by completing the connection in under a minute. This demanding time limit shifts the game from a relaxed puzzle to a **frenzied spatial-reasoning challenge**, requiring both quick thinking and efficient tile manipulation. With each new level, the pipe arrangements become more complex, introducing longer paths and more difficult tile configurations.
