About

Split Light Circuit

Features
Read full description

Beam Split is a relaxing yet mind-bending puzzle game where a single beam of light must reach every target — in the right color. Place mirrors to split and redirect the beam, use filters to blend its color, and solve each level within a limited number of moves or a ticking clock. Simple to learn, endlessly clever to master — every level is a fresh optical puzzle waiting to click into place.
