Tips and tricks
- Work backwards from the goal. Ask what the final state has to look like, then ask what the state before that must be.
- Read the whole board before your first move. In most puzzle games the first move is the most important one, and it deserves ten seconds of looking.
- Use undo or restart freely. Experimenting is how you learn the mechanics; there is no penalty for trying an idea.
- Look for forced moves — places where only one option is legal. Solving those first shrinks the problem.
- Because this is a Halloween game, seasonal games often have hidden bonuses in the decorations.
