Light Up – Place Bulbs to Light up the Squares – Puzzle Game
Light Up
In Light Up, you are presented with a grid of squares. Some are filled in black; some of the black squares are numbered. Your aim is to ‘light up’ all the empty squares by placing light bulbs in some of them.
Each light bulb illuminates the square it is on, plus all squares in line with it horizontally or vertically unless a black square is blocking the way.
