Each light type affects different neighboring tiles in unique patterns, demanding strategic puzzle-solving as you optimize your solution through pixel art visuals and relaxing music.

In the On Pixels game the goal is to leave all the lights on at the same time, using the minimum amount of movements for this.

Since 1995--thanks to Tiger Electronics and your drunken dad's last-minute Christmas gift--you have been prepared. You've conquered every level on every difficulty in [b]Lights Out[/b]. Who knows how many batteries and blisters you've been through, but you've put in the time and you know the rules. But this [i]isn't[/i] [b]Lights Out[/b], it's [b]Lights On[/b]. "B-but the titl--" No. They had to put that there so you would get the concept. It's [b]Lights On[/b] and the rules are different.

If you love bit (0 and 1) and logic, you need play this game! Sometimes it's simple and another times it's a terrible. I remember the game " peg solitaire" with another mechanics!

Fun, simple, and yet surprisingly challenging-- and the music has no reason to go as hard as it does, but it legitimately slaps anyway.

Fun game and has a beautiful soundtrack. It seems like a simple way to solve the puzzles but it makes you think a lot before you press the buttons. Have the chance to turn on all the lights with as few clicks as possible. It makes the game have a great replay factor.
