Can't solve the white boxes
Hello,

I was on the very first puzzle, but could NOT get acceptances once we got to the row of 9 sequence. We even tried hitting the 3 correct colored buttons exactly when the white light flashed, but still got failures--even two failures on the later parts--and gave up out of frustration.

Am I missing something with this puzzle, or is this just bugged?

Thank you!

The solution to this puzzle is as follows: the position of the white square is crucial. For example, if it's in the top right corner, then ask the other player to tell you what is the color of the box they see on their screen - that's the button you need to press. The challenge alternates between players and increases in complexity as you go. In the last section, when you see the white box flashing multiple times, you need to press the buttons in a sequence indicated by it. The sequence repeats, and there is no time limit, so take your time..
Hope that helps!

Thank you for replying! That confirms we were doing it correctly. However, once we got to the 9 grid square, we received successes only about 1/3 of the time, so it was impossible to move forward or keep playing. The level would even sometimes fail on the first or second button pressed within the correct combination. I don’t see any way to win this puzzle with triggering so many fails even when we were doing the puzzle exactly as you described.
