Tapa


Translate this site.

Tapa is a logic puzzle with a bit complicated rules and challenging solutions.

The rules are not so simple. :)
You have to make some of the cells black in such a way that they form a single polyomino (all blacks should be connected orthogonally in a single group).
2x2 black areas are not allowed.
The clues indicate the length of consecutive black blocks in the neighboring cells.
A single number in the clue means there is 1 black block, 2 numbers mean 2 blocks etc.
There must be at least 1 white cell between each 2 black blocks.
The blocks can appear in any order.

Left click on a square to make it black. Right click to mark with dot. Click and drag to mark more than one square.
