Lightup Craft

This is a small one player style puzzle game, it was made with minecraft textures in mind. made by Taif Aabo-Aljaloo and Louis Peyrondet.

Game Rules

In this game you have a grid of squares. some are numbered wall squares (or without numbers).

The main goal is to fill the whole empty areas (squares) with light by placing a lightbulb in a given free place.

To win the game, you must satisfy the following conditions:

• All empty squares MUST BE lit.

• No light is lit by another light.

• Each numbered wall square must be orthogonally adjacent to exactly the given number of lights.

• Non-numbered wall squares may have any number of lights adjacent to them.

You can mark a game square with a mark symbol.

All the above is represented by these symbols

• blank (' ')

• light bulb ('*') , two lightbulbs that are looking at each other will look like this

• black walls, that can be either unnumbered ('w') or numbered ('0', '1', '2', '3', or '4') , a wall with an error on it will show this symbol

• mark ('-')

• A lighted flag, that indicates a square is lit ('.')
