AA222Glyph

A compact totem placement puzzle built around a five-by-five stone board.

Each board hides a few sealed cells and asks you to restore its old symbol sequences. You hold six totems, and every totem answers to a rule the stones enforce: the Sun rests only on odd rows, the Moon only on even columns, the Star only on the diagonals, the Mountain only on the central four cells, the River only on the edges, and the Tree grows on any whole cell. Tap a totem, tap a matching cell, and the placement locks in. Every placement or move costs one of your limited steps, so the puzzle rewards planning before it rewards speed.

A target is met when a row or column carries the required symbols in order. Complete every target within the step budget to unseal the board. Selected totems gently highlight their valid cells, and completed sequences glow to mark your progress. If you run out of steps, the board reveals which sequences were left unfinished, so you can study the gap and try again with Reset Board at any time.

Stages scale gently from a single target with few sealed cells to two crossing targets with more sealed cells and tighter reasoning. Clear three stages in a row to unlock an advanced Rune totem that accepts any whole cell and lifts your score by one and a half times. From stage eleven onward, the Daily Challenge reshuffles a fresh board each day for a fresh reasoning problem.

Every fifteen cleared stages grants one stone fragment. Collect five fragments to open the Ancient Scroll, a short in-app passage that remembers the stonewriters and the patience they asked of those who came after. Progress, fewest steps per stage, longest chain, and highest score are tracked on the Statistics screen.
