## Description

Shade cells to form a single connected shape — no 2×2 block allowed<br>anywhere. Clue cells stay unshaded and show one to three numbers: reading<br>that cell&#39;s neighbors clockwise, the numbers are the lengths of the shaded<br>runs touching it. Work outward from what the numbers rule out, and the whole<br>shape comes into focus.<br><br>There is no guessing. Each of the 150 puzzles has been checked by a real<br>solver to guarantee a single, logical shape — a path of pure deduction<br>always exists from the first cell to the last.<br><br>FEATURES<br>• 150 hand-verified puzzles across three tablets<br>   – Slate (6×6), Tablet (7×7), Monolith (8×8)<br>• Guaranteed unique solution on every board — solvable by logic alone<br>• Simple tap controls: cycle a cell between shaded, X, and blank<br>• Live 2×2 violation highlighting so mistakes are easy to catch and fix<br>• Earn up to three stars per puzzle for efficient solving<br>• Cool slate-and-chalk visuals with cyan clue numerals<br>• Calm ambient soundtrack and tactile feedback — both toggleable<br>• Fully offline.
