The rules of the level are spelled out in pushable word-blocks, rearrange them to change what you are, what wins and what blocks, then solve two mirrored worlds at once.

How to play
Every board states its laws as word-tiles like ROCK IS YOU or FLAG IS WIN. Walk your avatar around and shove those words into new sentences to rewrite reality, turn a wall into the goal, or make yourself a different object entirely. A twist: there's a main world and a mirror world, and your edicts ripple across both, so you must satisfy the win condition in each.
Push property words into rule lines to change the level's logic
Whatever IS YOU is the thing you control; whatever IS WIN is the goal
Reach the goal in both the main board and the mirror board
After a rule change, edits briefly lock, plan your shoves

Tips & strategy
Read both worlds before moving, a rule that helps the main board may trap the mirror
Break a rule by pushing a word out of its sentence, not only by building new ones
Undo liberally; rule puzzles reward experimenting with sentences you can always take back
