How to Play
Rotate Mirrors: Click or tap angled mirror tiles to rotate them in 90-degree steps.
Deflect the Beam: Mirrors bounce incident beams at right angles. Guide the beam around obstacles.
Receptor Targets: Reach the glowing target receptor to illuminate it and unlock the next puzzle.
Splitters: Beam splitters transmit half the light straight forward while deflecting the rest sideways.
Boosters: Optical Wrench auto-orients a rogue mirror into its correct angle.

The Physics of Coherent Photons: Mastering Laser Reflection
Geometric optics has formed the bedrock of classical physics since Snell and Descartes formalized the laws of reflection and refraction. Laser Beam Logic translates these foundational electromagnetic principles into an engrossing, tactile web puzzle.
When a coherent monochromatic beam strikes a reflective planar boundary, the angle of incidence equals the angle of reflection (\(\theta_i = \theta_r\)). By arranging 45-degree mirrors across orthogonal coordinates, players construct complex optical circuits that redirect photons around obsidian barriers and into photosensitive receptors.
1
Trace the Emitted Ray
Follow the laser from its aperture node. Identify which row or column it traverses and locate the first mirror in its direct path.
2
Calculate 90° Deflections
A diagonal mirror slanting from bottom-left to top-right deflects a Southbound beam toward the East. Plan each bounce in your mind before clicking.
3
Avoid Optical Dead Ends
Beams that strike empty walls or opaque obstacle blocks are absorbed without scoring. Every bounce must progress toward a receptor.
4
Employ the Optical Wrench
When multiple reflection points form ambiguous branch paths, deploy your Optical Wrench to lock a pivot mirror into place.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do you play Laser Beam Logic?
Click or tap on mirror tiles across the laboratory grid to rotate their reflection angles. Guide the glowing laser beam emitted from the laser emitter around barriers until it strikes and illuminates all target optical receptors.
How do optical mirrors and splitters behave?
Flat mirrors deflect incident beams 90 degrees according to the law of reflection. Beam splitters allow 50% of the light to pass straight through while reflecting the other 50% at a right angle.
What boosters and power-ups are available?
Laser Beam Logic features three tactical tools: Alignment Wrench (auto-orients one misdirected mirror), Pulse Boost (highlights the projected trajectory of your beam), and Undo (reverses your last mirror turn).
How do the three difficulty tiers differ?
Apprentice (Easy) features a 5x5 optical grid with 1 laser emitter, 1 receptor, and basic flat mirrors. Tactician (Medium) features a 6x6 grid with beam splitters and 2 receptors. Grandmaster (Hard) features a 7x7 grid with color-filtering prisms and 3 receptors.
