Place fairies, follow the clues, and light up every open square. Lightdoku is a light-up logic puzzle with friendly fairies and colorful, raised tiles. Work out where each fairy belongs and watch your solution brighten the board. FOLLOW THE CLUES Dots on a raised tile tell you how many fairies belong in the adjacent cells. Place fairies beside these tiles to match the clues. Each fairy lights its row and column until a raised tile blocks the way. Fairies cannot shine directly on one another. MAKE EACH MOVE COUNT Double-tap to place a fairy. Tap to mark a square with an X, or drag to mark several squares. Watch the light spread across the board as your solution takes shape. ENDLESS LEVELS Start with small grids and work your way toward larger boards, including Hard and Super Hard levels. Keep solving as new puzzles are generated along the way. HELP WHEN YOU NEED IT An interactive tutorial introduces the rules one step at a time. Two boosters can help you place a fairy or mark squares with an X when you get stuck. Soft 3D characters, glowing tiles, and a soundtrack that changes with the level's difficulty give each board its own atmosphere. Lightdoku includes ads and optional in-app purchases.
