Playing the Game

Use the Left and Right arrow keys to move the falling tile in the relevant direction, and the Up arrow and Return keys to rotate the tile left and right respectively. The Shift key drops the tile down one line, and the Down key drops the tile all the way down - use it as a way of saving time.

All of these shortcuts can be customized by selecting Configure Shortcuts... from the Settings menu.

If two or more tiles of the same color come to rest horizontally or vertically next to each other, they become “glued”. If four or more pieces of the same color come to be “glued”, they disappear, and any pieces above them fall down according to the law of gravity ;-). If this causes four or more pieces to become “glued”, then they will also disappear, and so on.

Every time you remove 100 tiles, you advance to the next level, where the tiles fall faster, and the game is more difficult.

The game ends when the central column fills with tiles, and no more can fall.
