Bring this focus to a round
Choose one rule to keep in mind for this round. Apply it consistently rather than guessing what another version might allow. Notice the feedback after each input.
What you are aiming for
Score 900 points in twenty-five moves. An attractive position is not enough unless the goal is met. Keep the controls in easy reach.
Making your moves
- 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.
The controls to know
Tap adjacent cells. A careful first action helps you become familiar with the layout. Return to the rules if the result is unexpected.
Work through an example
A horizontal swap can complete a vertical line. Apply the same reasoning to the position in your own round. Read the matching step again.
Where a round can go wrong
A swap making no match is reverted. Compare the situation with the worked example. Read one step at a time and try it on the playing area. Match the instruction to the control you use.
