Board notes 5 details
- Layout
- Upper source towers, compact receiver beds, a chained middle bank, and three lower covered stacks connect through one S-shaped road.
- Goal
- Complete open receivers, pair each colored key with its chain shutter, and clear every revealed row.
- Opening
- Clear cyan and green in the upper beds, then route pink before collecting another key.
- Danger Zone
- A chain unlock can add traffic immediately; never collect a key at `14/16` or `16/16`.
- Mechanics
- Colored keys release matching chain shutters; question marks cover source cells, and `x/16` remains road occupancy.
