HOW TO PLAY
Tap an adjacent cell / arrows / WASD — step. Each safe step shows how many weak cells touch it (all 8 neighbours). ⚑ (or F) toggles mark mode for flagging suspected ice. Reach the far shore: +10 and a new, thinner lake. A safe road always exists. M mutes.
THE STORY
Two shores, and a lake the dark has bitten full of weak places. A courier crosses every night — letters for the living on one side, for the dead on the other — reading the ice by the number of cracks it whispers underfoot. A safe road always exists. That is the lake’s one mercy.
