Spot Me Gaffer! is a spotlight puzzle game set behind the scenes of a dazzling circus. You are the circus’s lighting technician, “Gaffer”, and your job is to follow the boss’s orders and shine the spotlight on the right performers.

Place performer tiles freely on the circus board to create a 4×4 grid. Then, using the cue card, cleverly stack spotlight cards so that only the performers matching the given conditions are visible. When you get the spotlight right, the matching performers score points and are removed from the board, creating new opportunities for the next round.

Read the cue, arrange the spotlight, find the right performers, and make the circus spectacular!
