Goal ? I don't see any indication that matching shapes does anything.
Even when burned. Also how could you move them away from edges?

This one is more difficult than the others, so I deicided to gave up and skip this letter. But a few days later when I solved "f", I felt bad about skipping "e", so I tried again, and I succeed! :-) Not as impossible as I thought first, but still hard. This is challenging even with hints.

Rule discovery is especially hard in that one, hints were necessary for me as well

Rot13 hint to put out fire with water?

I took these hints from the game page:

- Gb cnegvnyyl ohea gur ybat oybpx lbh arrq gb sbez lbhefrys vagb n fcrpvsvp xvaq bs funcr

- gb znxr gur iregvpny one fznyyre, sbez n funcr yvxr na Y jvgu gur fznyy ovg ng gur gbc bs gur iregvpny one, fgneg n sver, orpbzr jngre, gura synggra ntnvafg gur one gb rkgvathvfu vg

Thanks but I feel like those hints are not enough! Every time I start a fire the block disappears completely whenever I turn into water. Can anyone make a more specific Rot13 hint aside from the game's comments?

I guess the Rot13 hints just aren't enough for me are they? I feel like I need pictures aside from just words, so can someone find/create a website link or a video showing a step-by-step solution with pictures? Or maybe just type a set of arrow keys that show the entire solution even if that's considered cheating. I'm still stuck so I might have to give it up unless someone can find a way to directly show me the solutions. It's just a shame Toombler has low popularity :(

I totally understand that words are not enough for someone as a neurodivergent myself. I already provided the key by key solution but probably I didn't do a good job at explaining that creating the L shape and touching the vertical bar from the correct placement part. I will provide a picture if I have time, or maybe someone can post a full walkthrough.

 

If you are you looking for a solution or a walkthrough for one of the game links, please have a look in the comments.
