Masyu rule (From Nikoli):

  1. Make a single loop with lines passing through the centers of cells, horizontally or vertically. The loop never crosses itself, branches off, or goes through the same cell twice.
  2. Lines must pass through all cells with black or white circles.
  3. Lines passing through white circles must pass straight through its cell, and make a right-angled turn in at least one of the cells next to the white circle.
  4. Lines passing through black circles must make a right-angled turn in its cell, then it must go straight through the next cell (till the middle of the second cell) on both sides.

    Haven't touched this site cause of other stuff like "real life" and "distractions". Let's hope I still remember how to make a puzzle. This one is kind of a two-trick pony though. Online Play Link Guide Arrow rule (From puzz.link ): Shade some cells on the board. Shaded cells cannot be horizontally or vertically adjacent. All unshaded cells on the board form an orthogonally connected area. Unshaded cells cannot form a loop. This includes 2x2 squares. Cells with a clue cannot be shaded. An arrow indicates the only direction in which one could begin a path to the star without going through a shaded cell or backtracking. (This genre was invented by Inaba Naoki.)

      Everything ends up in a loop... Online Play Link Hotaru Beam a.k.a. Firefly rules (From puzz.link ): Draw a line from every firefly to make one connected network. A black dot indicates where each firefly's path must start. A path cannot connect directly between two black dots. Paths cannot branch, cross or go through another path or firefly. A number indicates how many turns the firefly's path makes before reaching a firefly (possibly itself). Paths starting from empty circles can make any amount of turns.

    So you know how when I'm kinda stressed I use making puzzle as an escape from reality? On an unrelated note here's a big Masyu.
