Halonen Games

Small, sunny games made in Finland.

LightHouse is a logic puzzle where you light the way for boats along a bright island coast. Ela! Alfa Beta teaches you the Greek alphabet before your next holiday.

Our first game · In development for Android

Place one lighthouse in every row, every column and every island. Never let two of them touch.

LightHouse key art: a lighthouse on a small island beside a colourful 5×5 puzzle board, with a sailboat, a seagull and a crab on the beach

A little light, a lot of thinking.

Every board is a coastline of coloured islands. Your job is to light exactly one lighthouse per row, per column and per island — and lighthouses are shy, so none may touch, not even at a corner. Some coasts hide reefs that must stay within a beam, which is where the real deduction begins.

Tap to mark a tile with an ✕, tap twice to raise a lighthouse, drag to mark many at once. There is no timer and no lives to buy back. Three mistakes and the lights go out; you decide how to carry on.

Every one of the 1,000 route levels has exactly one solution and can be solved by reasoning alone — no guessing, ever. When you ask for a hint, it shows you the logic, not just the answer.

  • 1,000-level routeFrom a 5×5 tutorial to 10×10 ultra boards, every one verified to have a single solution.
  • Daily puzzleOne 8×8 puzzle a day, the same for everyone, with a weekly card to fill.
  • Hints that teachA hint is a real deduction — "this island has only one free tile" — never a lucky guess.
  • Kind by designNo timers, no energy, no ads you didn't ask for. Play at your own pace.
