How to Play Gravity Wells

  1. Place gravity wells on the playing field by clicking — each well exerts a pull on any nearby moving object.
  2. Adjust the strength and direction of each well before launching to shape the trajectory you need.
  3. Launch the projectile and watch it curve through your gravity fields in real time.
  4. Guide the projectile precisely to the target zone, threading it through gaps and around obstacles.
  5. Avoid hitting obstacles — if the projectile collides or escapes the field, the attempt fails and you must try again.

About Gravity Wells

Gravity Wells is a physics puzzle game that simulates gravitational attraction between masses. Place wells of varying strength to bend the trajectory of moving objects — guide satellites to their orbits, route space debris around obstacles, or thread needles through gravitational mazes. The elegance of each solution lies in using the fewest wells to achieve the most precise path.

Each level introduces new mechanics: repulsive fields, time-limited wells, moving targets, and multi-body interactions that create genuinely complex trajectories. The game teaches real orbital mechanics intuitively — no equations required, just experimentation and spatial thinking. Free to play, no download needed.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the physics realistic?
It's simplified but grounded in real inverse-square gravitational law. Well strength falls off with distance in the same way real gravity does, so the intuitions you build transfer to real orbital mechanics.
Can I place unlimited wells?
No — each level specifies a maximum number of wells you can place. Part of the puzzle is using a limited budget of wells as efficiently as possible.
Do wells affect each other?
Yes — when multiple wells are active, their fields interact and combine, creating complex multi-body trajectories that can be tricky to predict without experimentation.
What happens if the projectile leaves the screen?
The attempt ends and you're prompted to try again. Repositioning your wells to keep the trajectory within bounds is part of the challenge.
