Can you turn out all the lights? Lights Out Ultra is a fun twist on the childhood classic. Tap a light to turn it off, but all adjacent lights change too -- lights that are on turn off, and lights that are off turn on. Turn out all the lights, and you win! Advanced modes add multiple-colored lights and different grid sizes to allow you to customize the difficulty level. Best scores are tracked for each mode, allowing you to compete against yourself in pursuit of total Lights Out Ultra mastery: can you solve all difficulty modes in less than 20 moves? A clean, simple UI delivers an enjoyable experience you can play for hours. Optional numerical indicators on lights provide assistance to colorblind people or others who wish for more visual cues than color alone. Designed for both quick, fun games when you're on the go and long, hard games when you want a challenge, Lights Out Ultra is a puzzler sure to please! ---------------------------- New in version 1.1: Hints!
