Higgs Out

Higgs Out is a meditative puzzle in the spirit of Lights Out, generalized to mod-k arithmetic and dressed as the Higgs field.

Every tap injects a quantum of excitation: the cell and its four neighbors go +1 (a plus shape), wrapping around. Your goal is to calm the field back to its vacuum so the total Energy reads zero.

It is a metaphor, not a simulation — but the vocabulary is real: vacuum, round state, mean field, true and false vacuum, v≈246 GeV.

Inside: • Four modes — Tutorial (3×3), Calm (5×5), Resonance (6×6), Decay (7×7); • Free hints — stuck? the game shows where to tap, no paywall; • Daily board — same scramble for everyone, streaks and a leaderboard; • Target patterns — build a shape instead of the vacuum; • Higgs potential panel — the “Mexican hat” the field rolls down; • Resonant sound, a dark neon palette, gentle motion; • Fully localized in English and Russian.

Calm, elegant, logical. Bring the energy to zero.
