What to study

This is the game's signature rule in a single frame: draw one continuous line from the start dot to the end nub so that the red squares and the green squares end up on opposite sides of the path. The panel states the whole puzzle with color and geometry alone, no text, no numbers, no tutorial, and the half-visible neighboring panels show that panels are chained into teaching sequences. The thin white border around the image is the trailer's montage framing, not game UI. Frame at about 0:13 in the Release Date Trailer (Steam).
