One room. One rule.

I

Place candles

Tap any white cell to place a candle. Light shines along its entire row and column until it meets a wall.

II

Light every cell

Every white cell must be illuminated to solve the room. Numbers on dark walls tell you exactly how many candles belong beside them.

III

No two candles face each other

That is the only constraint. Simple to learn. Endlessly satisfying to solve.
