Understand the aim
Remove matching tiles connected by a path of at most two turns. The feedback beside the game helps you follow the round. Return to the instructions when a step is unclear.
Making your moves
- Select equal tiles.
- The route must cross only empty cells.
- An outside-border path is allowed.
- Open connections by removing pairs.
Keyboard and screen controls
Tap pairs; use Hint and Undo. Read a button’s label before selecting it. Contact us with the game and device if a control does not respond.
Try this example
A same-row pair needs an empty route between its endpoints. Focus on why the action is allowed, not only its outcome. Read the matching step again.
An important reminder
Three corners are invalid. Check the rule before repeating the action. Before your first action, say what you are trying to achieve. Then compare the result with the goal.
