About
Guide a single stroke around the stones until every patch of raked sand is covered.
Finish the path and receive a kanji with a short reflection.
A calm Japanese zen garden logic puzzle — no flashy effects, no nagging notifications.
HOW TO PLAY
• Start at S and slide your finger through every sand tile exactly once, avoiding the stones, and finish at G
• You can't step back onto a tile you've already crossed, so every turn counts
• New to path puzzles? A short how-to and a guided practice walk you through the solving logic, one move at a time
