About Errands
Errands is a free daily route-planning puzzle from Mind Loft. A small town of streets seen from above, a handful of stops and a short list of rules. Tap the stops in the order you will drive them, and the route, the timetable and every rule update as you go. The aim is to be back home as early as the day allows.
There are four kinds of rule. A shop can shut, so you have to be there by a certain time. A shop can open late, so arriving early means waiting at the door. Something you buy can spoil, so it has to be home within so many minutes of leaving the shop. And one stop can have to come before another. Every block takes four minutes and every stop takes ten.
Trying an order costs nothing, so the puzzle is in comparing them: the shortest loop round town usually breaks a rule, and the order that keeps them all often doubles back. Each board has one order that is soonest home, and you are scored on how many minutes behind it you finish.
The town grows through the week: four stops on Monday, more stops and more rules by Thursday, blocks dug up for roadworks on Friday and Saturday, and on Sunday the big day of eight stops in the largest town. The Errand Ladder names your rung, from Back for the Milk up to Phileas Fogg.
A town of streets seen from above, a list of stops and a few rules. A shop shuts at a set time, another opens late, something you buy has to be home before it spoils, and one stop has to come before another. Tap the stops in the order you will drive them. The route draws itself, the timetable fills in and each rule turns green or red. Trying an order costs nothing; Drive Home commits the trip. You are ranked on minutes behind the soonest possible trip. The town grows from four stops on Monday to eight on Sunday.
