Keep the stated aim separate from side details such as animation or appearance. Progress is measured by the game’s own completion or scoring rules. Make the next step deliberately.
Aim for this result
Remove matching tiles connected by a path of at most two turns. An attractive position is not enough unless the goal is met. Review the board or playing area as it changes.
Follow these playing steps
- Select equal tiles.
- The route must cross only empty cells.
- An outside-border path is allowed.
- Open connections by removing pairs.
The controls to know
Tap pairs; use Hint and Undo. Keep the playing area visible while using these controls. A new-round button replaces the current round.
One way to understand the rules
A same-row pair needs an empty route between its endpoints. Your next round may have a different position, so inspect it before acting. Choose a deliberate next step.
Watch out for this
Three corners are invalid. A different version of the game may use a different rule. Read one step at a time and try it on the playing area. Match the instruction to the control you use.
