Read before acting
Read one step at a time and try it on the playing area. Match the instruction to the control you use. Make the next step deliberately.
Your goal
Score 900 points in twenty-five moves. The feedback beside the game helps you follow the round. Check the rules when you are unsure.
Step by step
- Swap adjacent pieces to make a line of three or more.
- Matched pieces disappear.
- Falling pieces can trigger cascades.
- Reach the target before running out of moves.
Controls
Tap adjacent cells. On a smaller screen, keep the active part of the board within view. Check any mode label before starting.
A useful example
A horizontal swap can complete a vertical line. Focus on why the action is allowed, not only its outcome. Take a moment to compare.
Watch out for this
A swap making no match is reverted. Read the feedback to see why an action did not have the expected result. Take enough time to read a new position. If a game has a timer, learn its controls first rather than searching for them during the round.
