Sweep the beam. Save the ships.
BEACON is a fogged ocean watch. A single lighthouse stands at the bottom of the screen; you drag to sweep its beam across the water. Ships sail in from every edge through the fog. A ship inside the beam sees the safe route and steers toward the harbour; a ship in darkness drifts toward the nearest rocks. Decide which ships to light first. One sweep can save a near miss, but the ship on the other side of the screen is also losing its bearings. Lit ships even curve around rocks on their way home, so a brief flash can set them straight before you move on. Three watches are all the harbour-master will allow. Each wave sends more ships, faster. How long can you keep the harbour open?
1. Drag anywhere to aim the lighthouse beam. 2. A ship inside the beam steers safely toward the harbour. 3. A ship in darkness drifts toward the nearest rocks. 4. Each wave sends more ships at once. Decide which to light first. 5. Three rock strikes and the watch ends.
