Glacier Shells

Fill the glacier with five handmade ice shells, each enclosing exactly one glowing beacon.

How to play · rules and tactics

Fill the glacier with five handmade ice shells, each enclosing exactly one glowing beacon. Draw shell sizes 3, 5, 4, 5 and 3 in the workshop by tapping connected side-touching squares, then Seal shape. On the glacier, tap the top-left anchor of its bounding box; every shell square must cover empty ice and exactly one beacon. Rotate or Mirror changes the sealed shell, while Redesign returns to the workshop. The four corners and center are holes, so a plain row-by-row packing will not work. Undo lifts the last placed shell without penalty. This is a creative packing puzzle with no timer or losing state; use the final spaces to guide your next custom shape. Keyboard: Tab and Enter/Space operate buttons; R restarts.
