TRAILS is a cozy puzzle game in which you guide sand ships across a crumbling desert to reach isolated outposts. Draw paths for each ship across the treacherous sands, planning carefully to avoid collisions and ensure each ship reaches its goal. Chart Your Course Plan your route by drawing paths across the desert grid. All sand ships must follow their trails without visiting the same space twice - and without crashing into one another. With every route you sketch, you're constructing a web of paths across the dunes. Supply the Outposts Scattered across the wasteland, remote villages rely on the convoy for vital cargo. To complete each level you'll need to supply every outpost. Pick up the right goods and bring them safely to their destination. Careful coordination and efficient routing are the key to your success. Juggle Resources Each sand ship can carry one item at a time, whether its crucial cargo, a key to unlock a new route or a rare power-up, improving the ship's capabilities. Managing pickups, handoffs and avoiding unwanted items is essential to reaching your goal. Hazards of the Wasteland The dunes are your home, but they are not without danger. Collapsing terrain, narrow passages, gaping chasms, ancient traps and errant drones can block your path or derail your journey. Foresight and careful coordination will keep the convoy on track. Extra Challenges For those who seek an even greater test, optional levels and hidden challenges offer more complex maps, tighter constraints and push the puzzle mechanics to their limits. Use all you have learned to take on the toughest challenges TRAILS has to offer. Can you chart the perfect paths and navigate all trials of the desert?

Welcome to Lights Out: Boolean Logic – The Ultimate Minimalist Circuit Challenge. Forget simple puzzles. Lights Out introduces a refined logic experience based on the core principles of digital engineering: manipulating the state of a complex system through Boolean logic gates. It’s a game of troubleshooting, signal flow, and tactical foresight that turns a clean digital canvas into a playground for your mind. Your mission: Achieve total darkness. Every switch is a control; every gate is a logical operator. Toggle the switches to redirect the flow of energy through AND, OR, and NOT gates. Can you find the precise configuration that shuts down the entire grid across over 9 quintillion possibilities? Key Features The Power of the Master Switch Experience the satisfaction of the perfect shutdown. In a world of complex wiring, your task is simple but profound: find the one combination of states that turns every bulb off. Mastering the flow of the circuit is the mark of a true Logic Engineer. Infinite Logical Systems The challenge literally never ends. From basic NOT gates to massive, multi-layered Boolean webs, our engine generates unique, solvable puzzles that scale with your skill. With billions of configurations, you will never see the same circuit twice. Pristine High-Contrast Design Immerse yourself in a distraction-free environment. Featuring a crisp background, sharp circuit lines, and vibrant color-coded gates, our high-contrast aesthetic provides a sophisticated atmosphere designed for deep focus and mental clarity. Real-Time Signal Propagation Watch the logic come to life. Every tap of a switch triggers a cascading wave of energy as signals propagate through the gates in real-time. Feel the impact of every choice as the grid reacts instantly to your commands. Step-by-Step Logic Hints Stuck in a live circuit? Our smart hint system doesn't just solve it for you; it analyzes the current state and toggles the first switch required to move you closer to the solution, ensuring you maintain your "Flow State" while learning the logic. Quintillions of Levels How far can your logic take you? Track your progress across a staggering number of levels. From the simplicity of Level 1 to the complexity of the 64-bit integer limit, your journey is truly infinite. Global Leaderboards Climb the ranks and earn the prestigious title of "Logic Engineer." Compare your level progress with players worldwide and prove you have the most advanced Boolean reasoning on the planet. Gameplay Highlights: • Boolean Logic: Based on the fundamental principles of computer science made into an addictive puzzle. • Zero Pressure: No timers, no penalties—just you and the circuit. • Mental Sharpness: Enhances deductive reasoning, troubleshooting skills, and system analysis. • Minimalist Perfection: A beautiful, quiet game that fits perfectly in your pocket. The grid is live. The solution is hidden. The darkness is a single switch away. Download Lights Out: Boolean Logic today and Begin Shutdown!

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: TRAILS at none against Lights Out's 1. TRAILS also leads on ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
