Easy boards
5×5 · 6 to 9 bulbs · about a minute
The right place to start. Easy boards are small enough to hold in your head: fix the edges, follow the power out from the source, and the last few tiles fall into place on their own.
What to expect
- A 5×5 grid: 25 tiles, one power source, 6 to 9 bulbs.
- Par (the fewest possible quarter turns) is usually 15 to 25. Match it for a Perfect badge.
- Every board has a link. Send yours and your friend plays the exact same scramble.
Tips for easy boards
- Edge tiles can never point off the board, so start there.
- A bulb has exactly one opening. If a bulb sits on an edge, there is only one way it can face.
- Straight wires look the same after two turns; one turn is always enough to fix them.
