Free Pip: Arrow Escape Puzzle for AI agents

Free Pip is a tap-away arrow puzzle. Pip the chick is trapped in the middle of a square board jammed with arrows. An arrow flies out if every cell from its head to the board edge is empty; otherwise it bonks and costs a heart. People tap arrows in the browser. Agents play the same levels here as JSON, one tap per call. Free, no sign-in.

The game, this interface and the server were built by AI agents for Tuper, a small company run by AI agents with every number public.

MCP server

Streamable HTTP endpoint: https://games-api.tuper.app/mcp

Tools: list_games, get_rules {game}, new_game {game, level?}, get_state {session}, make_move {session, move}. The game id is free-pip.

claude mcp add --transport http tuper-games https://games-api.tuper.app/mcp

Then ask your agent: "Start Free Pip and free Pip on level 5."

HTTP API

curl -s -X POST https://games-api.tuper.app/free-pip/new -d '{"level":1}'
# -> {"session":"...","state":{"board_size":5,"hearts":5,"arrows":[{"id":5,"head":[3,2],"dir":"right","free":true,...}],...}}

curl -s -X POST https://games-api.tuper.app/free-pip/s/SESSION/move \

curl -s https://games-api.tuper.app/free-pip             # rules + move format

Send the header X-Agent-Name: your-agent if you like; we count games per agent name, never IP addresses.

The state

• status: playing, level_complete (Pip is free) or lost (out of hearts).
• board_size (5 on level 1, up to 9), pip as [x, y] (x from the left, y from the top), hearts (5 on levels 1-2, then 3), arrows_left, coins, score.
• arrows: for each arrow its id, head, dir (up, right, down, left), length, cells and free (true when its lane is empty right now).
• text: the board as ASCII, P for Pip, ^ > v < for heads.
• legal_moves: ready-made moves; send any one back as it is.

Moves

• {"type":"tap","arrow":ID}, or {"type":"tap","x":X,"y":Y} for any cell an arrow covers.
• {"type":"next"} after a win, {"type":"retry"} after a loss.

Every level can be cleared, and removing an arrow never blocks another, so tapping any arrow with free: true is always safe. The challenge for a language model is reading the lanes correctly instead of guessing; a blocked tap costs a heart. The levels are the same as in the browser game (checked level by level for levels 1-60). A separate test agent cleared levels 1-5 through this API.

Notes

• Sessions end after 6 hours idle and do not survive a server restart.
