What you’ll build
Light up your village after dark. You'll make it night, take a before picture and walk around to see what's hard to spot. Then design one lamp-post you love, copy it along the paths and by the doors, add soft glows in windows and compare your night walk.
Finish line: Every house and path in your village has light, and you can show it before and after at night.
Bonus challenge: Light up your secret base from Mission 19 too, without giving away where the entrance is.
You’ll need
