Reflect
Place mirrors to bounce a beam of light around the blocks and into the target.
What is Reflect?
Reflect is a light-and-mirrors puzzle. The beam leaves its cell in a straight line and keeps going until a mirror turns it, a block absorbs it or it leaves the grid. Tap an empty cell to place a mirror and tap again to flip which way it leans.
Using fewer mirrors than expected pays more, not less.
How to play Reflect
The aim: Steer the beam into the target using mirrors.
- The beam runs straight. Light leaves the marked cell and keeps going until a mirror turns it, a block stops it, or it leaves the grid.
- Tap to place, tap to flip. Tapping an empty cell drops a mirror in. Tapping it again flips which way it leans, and once more takes it away.
- Blocks absorb the light. A crossed cell ends the beam. There is always a route around them.
- Work back from the target. The beam can only arrive along the target row or the target column. Pick which, then work out what has to turn it there.
How scoring works
- Landing the beam pays a completion bonus scaled by difficulty.
- Using fewer mirrors than expected pays more, not less.
- Placing and removing mirrors while you work costs nothing.
How a round ends
The round ends when the beam reaches the target, or when you give up.
Skills it draws on
- Spatial reasoning
- Working backwards
- Reflection and angles
