About the Game

LIGHT IT
A warm, quiet light-up puzzle. No countdown, no pressure — just you, the board, and every corner slowly coming to light. In a hand-drawn, paper-textured world, you place glowing crystals until not a single shadow remains. The rules are simple, yet they hide the kind of logic that keeps you saying "just one more."

How to play
Place a crystal, and its light streams out in straight lines, lighting every cell it passes.
No two crystals may shine on each other — mind their line of sight.
A numbered wall tells you exactly how many crystals belong on the tiles around it.
The goal is simple: light every empty cell without breaking a single rule.
Not sure about a tile? Right-click to mark it with an ✕ and keep your thinking clear.

Plenty to play, for a long time
500 hand-crafted levels across five chapters, gently rising in difficulty, with hell stages saved for the end.
Relax mode — completely untimed. For when you just want to solve in peace, no clock in sight.
Endless mode — Easy, Normal, Hard and Hell, holding steady or ramping up round after round.
Daily Challenge — one shared puzzle each day, solved alongside the whole world.
Tutorial — six gentle steps that ease you in, even with no experience at all.

Leave your mark on every level
Each level awards Bronze, Silver or Gold based on how much time you had to spare — clear it for Bronze, and the calmer you are, the brighter the medal.
60 achievements to collect, one step at a time, from your first crystal to a wall of gold.

Made for unwinding
Hand-drawn paper art — warm beige tones and a soft glow, like solving on the pages of a quiet notebook.
Soothing music and sound — placing, lighting, clearing: every action answers back just right.
Available in 12 languages, clean and easy to pick up.
Single-player, offline, no ads, no in-app purchases — open it up and it's pure puzzle time.

If you love…
A quiet afternoon, a cup of hot tea, and a puzzle that's just enough to stretch your mind without ever stressing it — then come, and light a lamp.
