Line up matching pieces in rows or columns to delete to delete them and clear the board.

Simple, but tricky! Don't run out of matching pieces or you'll run out of moves...

You have limited amount of time to clear each row/column. If you run out of time, a row or column is added. Each level has a maximum number of columns/rows so if it is not possible to add a row/column, you'll run out of time.

Controls

Use the crank and B button for fastest gameplay. The cranks moves the outer piece around the board. The B button shifts the outer piece into a row or column, shifting the row/column.

The D-pad is also supported.

Levels, Layouts, Pieces

There are 100 levels. The initial levels are "training" levels with smaller boards and types of pieces: 5 columns by 5 rows and 5 types of pieces to start out. The board size increases up to 12 columns and 8 rows as you progress through the levels.

There are up to 19 types of pieces on the board at higher levels.

Options
