Each page presents a 3×3 or 4×4 grid of white squares where you must write a number (1‑4) and a colour (yellow, blue, red or white – which acts as “no colour”). Every square must be unique, so no two cells may share the same number‑colour pair. Between the squares are paint marks that serve as clues: a number indicates that the two adjacent squares add up to that value (e.g., a “5” means 2 + 3), and a colour indicates that the two squares are the two colours named (e.g., “green” means yellow + blue). The game works solo, cooperatively, or as a race. In solo or co‑op you need only one copy of the magazine; each player solves the same grid at their own pace, marking answers on their own sheet. In competitive mode each participant gets their own magazine and tries to finish the grid faster than the others, turning deduction into a lively sprint. Because everything is done with paper, pen and the rules, Acrylogic is completely universal – no text, no translation needed, and it works for any age from ten upwards. Rounds last five to fifteen minutes, offering quick yet focused brain‑teasing sessions. Its light weight (1.5/5) signals an easy learning curve, perfect for fans of short puzzles and for those who want something that fits in a backpack or a gamer’s toolbox. If you enjoy numeric challenges, colour combos, and testing your mind in short bursts, Acrylogic might become your next favorite shelf‑top brain‑teaser. ## FAQ ### How many players can join?
