Lumen
The pulsar is slowing. Stars do not slow. Something is taking the light between the beats.

I counted the beats for a week. Nineteen a minute, then eighteen. Whatever this is, it is patient.

Tips for Pulsar Zone

  • Look for a corner or a five before taking the first match you see. Power pieces pay far more than plain matches.
  • Time warp starts you short, but every comet, nova or supernova you forge hands back a move. Forge early.
  • Stars here count toward the detour. Replay a level for its third star when you are one short.
