A LITTLE ABOUT THE GAME

Fence the meadow in one unbroken loop. Every number counts its fenced sides.

Fence in part of the meadow with one loop. Run the fence along the lines between the posts, with no branches, no loose ends and no crossings. A number in a square says how many of its four sides are fenced; squares without a number can have any. Every puzzle is made fresh in your browser and has exactly one solution, found by reasoning alone. Small puzzles need only plain steps and quick patterns; Medium and Large ask for the occasional "what if". Cross out the gaps that can't take a fence, undo freely, and ask for a hint that explains its step. Tap a gap or drag from post to post, play with the mouse or the keyboard, and put your fastest solve on the Plocky leaderboard for each size.
