6×8 grid and two-turn path finding.
A careful first round
Before your first action, say what you are trying to achieve. Then compare the result with the goal. Keep the objective visible.
Your goal
Remove matching tiles connected by a path of at most two turns. An attractive position is not enough unless the goal is met. Check the rules when you are unsure.
Step by step
- Select equal tiles.
- The route must cross only empty cells.
- An outside-border path is allowed.
- Open connections by removing pairs.
Controls
Tap pairs; use Hint and Undo. On a smaller screen, keep the active part of the board within view. Check any mode label before starting.
A useful example
A same-row pair needs an empty route between its endpoints. Apply the same reasoning to the position in your own round. Notice the change in the playing area.
Watch out for this
Three corners are invalid. Read the feedback to see why an action did not have the expected result. Read one step at a time and try it on the playing area. Match the instruction to the control you use.
