How do you play masyu?
Apparently the translation of masyu is rather colourful, being something like 'evil influence'.
There are no numbers or letters in this puzzle, but rather there is a grid, with black and white counters.
The aim is to draw a single continuous connected loop that goes through all of the cells containing counters in accordance with the rules.
The loop must go into a cell through the centre of one of the 4 sides, and exit from a different side.
Sometimes the path will turn, depending on what type of counter it is:
- white counters you have to go straight through then turn 90 degrees in the cell before and/or after
- black counters you turn inside the cell 90 degrees, and then travel straight through the previous and next cells
