Color is a puzzle now, not a paint job. PRISMS AND GATES Filters used to recolor any beam that reached them, which meant a colored target was satisfied the moment light arrived. A gate now passes only light that already matches it, and a new prism piece does the tinting. Routing through the prism is the puzzle, and four worlds finally play differently from one another. EXPERIMENT WITHOUT PENALTY Taking a mirror back off the board is free. Only the moves you keep count toward your stars, so trying an idea and changing your mind costs nothing. FAIRER STARS Three stars now allows a little slack over par instead of demanding a flawless first attempt. Clearing the board still costs no moves, but it forfeits the perfect-run star, so wiping and replaying from memory is no longer the fastest way to a gold rating. MORE BOARDS, BETTER CURVE Five times as many hand-authored layouts, each able to appear in any of eight orientations, ordered so later worlds genuinely ask more of you. No world repeats a board. A REBUILT PUZZLE SCREEN The board no longer scrolls under your hands. Beams draw as one continuous run instead of a chain of segments, light visibly travels along them, and finishing a board now lands as a moment rather than a panel you have to scroll down to find. NEVER STUCK A level opens once either of the two before it is done, so one hard board cannot wall off the rest of the campaign. Hints come in two stages: the first marks the cell, the second places the mirror, and only the first one charges. SOUND AND SETTINGS New chimes for lit targets and solved boards, on an ambient mix so your own music keeps playing. A new Settings tab collects sound, haptics, reduce motion, and a colorblind assist mode that gives every beam color its own shape. ALSO IN THIS RELEASE • Board themes now change the board itself, not just the background • A short intro for first-time players • Daily is a board built for that date, not a campaign level you have already beaten • Level 1 asks you to place a mirror instead of solving itself • Both mirror orientations sit on the tray, so neither costs an extra move

A brighter, smoother Refract is here. • A redesigned Campaign with clearer world progress and a new Continue card • A rebuilt Store with theme previews and earned-currency purchases • Undo, cleaner mirror controls, and better drag-and-drop feedback • Improved scoring, completion flow, haptics, VoiceOver, Dynamic Type, and Reduce Motion support • Faster launch and safer progress migration

Refract just got a major upgrade — here's everything that's new: Sound & Haptics Puzzles now have full audio — ambient background music, satisfying sound effects for every mirror interaction, and haptic feedback as you build your solution. Head to the new Settings tab to tune it exactly how you like. Color Blind Support Four accessible color palettes (Deuteranopia, Protanopia, Tritanopia, and standard) plus an optional shape overlay on beams — so every player can read the board clearly. Game Center Achievements and leaderboards are live. Compete on total stars, maintain your login streak, and earn milestones for solving puzzles without hints. iPad Layout A native sidebar navigation built for iPad — browse worlds in the sidebar, solve in the detail view, right where it belongs.
