On the Subject of Towers

Everything looks new from a different perspective.

  • A variant of a sudoku puzzle will be displayed on the module.
  • A sudoku puzzle consists of the amount of numbers from one to the length/height of the grid. They are formatted in such a way that no number appears twice in any row or column.
  • The clues of this particular puzzle are as follows:
    • Each number of the actual puzzle is representative of the height of a tower.
    • For each row and column, the number associated with that side indicates how many towers you can see from that spot.
    • Taller towers obstruct shorter towers.
  • Clicking on each square of the grid will adjust the height of the tower by one based on the tower mode (up or down).
  • Solve the puzzle to disarm the module.
