Charge and Ricochet
Complete the bottom charge rail; each build spends one capacitor energy. Then flip the three mirrors and Fire upward from the bottom-left emitter. / and \ mirrors reflect the beam at right angles. Every traveled cell spends one energy; each of four diamond capacitors returns two. Plan a chain that collects them all before energy runs out. Mirror adjustments are free.
Tap tiles, or use Tab and Enter. Arrow keys move board focus.
