Trisentis is a one-player board game, played on an \(n\times n\) board [Computer versions, called Orbix, Lights Out, and Think-A-Dot, also exist]. Spaces on the board can be either 0 or 1. The game is solved won if every 0 on the board has an uneven number of 1's as neighbors. The paper shows that Trisentis cannot be solved when \(n\) is uneven, and also presents the computer solutions available for \(n\leq 150\), and \(n\) even. Whether Trisentis is solvable for every even \(n\) is an open question.
