Tap it. 11 RULES TO MASTER • Find the cell that breaks its column color • Catch two same-colored cells touching • Spot the broken mirror in symmetric grids • Find the adjacent symbol duplicate • Trace arrows pointing at their twins • Break 180° rotational symmetry • Spot the diagonal mismatch • Catch the cell that breaks the column color cycle • Find the row missing a symbol • Find the unsorted row • Identify the duplicate row pair 5 THEMED WORLDS Candy Shop.
