Green Leprechauns: In this St. Patrick’s Day brain game, your goal is to place the leprechauns in a manner that turns the entire playing area green.

You’ll see certain squares with shamrocks in them. The number represents the exact number of leprechauns that can touch the square.

If you see a shamrock without a number, you can attach any number of leprechauns to it.

Good luck!
