Stuck?

Ah. Finally.

After all this time watching you manage on your own, you’ve actually had to come ask me for help. I knew this page would come in handy eventually.

Tell me what’s gone wrong. I’ll try to help just enough to send you back in there to get yourself into trouble again.

• I’m not sure about a rule.

  Go and read it. Some of them even get an animation. For something this simple, it borders on pedagogical overkill.

  The Rules

• I want to check a situation.

  Recreate the section that’s giving you trouble on the 7 × 7 grid and check the result. If you’ve missed a rule, we’ll find out soon enough. That look of doubt on your face… delicious.

  The Sandbox

• Am I still on the right track?

  Enter the coordinates of the cell you’re on.

  If you’ve wandered into a dead end, I’ll tell you. If you’re standing on a cell you should never have reached, I’ll tell you that too.

  And if everything’s fine? I’ll have nothing to report. Don’t expect congratulations.

  The Compass

• I think I found the exit.

  How exciting.

  Enter the coordinates of the last cell in your dead end. I’ll try to contain my enthusiasm.

  If it’s the right one, I’ll be forced to admit it. If it isn’t, I’ll do my best to look just as surprised as you.
