Ponderings

Turn every stone in the pond to the same side.

How to play

Each stone has a pale side and an ink side. Tap a stone to turn it over.

Some stones turn alone. Others are quietly linked, and tapping one turns every stone it’s linked to as well. Links don’t pass along: if A is linked to B and B to C, tapping A turns A and B, but not C.

Each tap sends a ripple in that stone’s own color around every stone that turned. Watch the ripples to learn the links.

The pond is still when every stone is pale, or every stone is ink. Min is the fewest taps that can do it. Tapping a stone twice puts everything back, so there’s nothing to undo.

Daily ponds

Three ponds a day: Small (12 stones), Medium (19) and Large (27). Each daily pond can be played once. New ponds arrive at midnight US Eastern time.
