Build familiarity through play
Before your first action, say what you are trying to achieve. Then compare the result with the goal. Make the next step deliberately.
What counts as success
Remove matching tiles connected by a path of at most two turns. Keep that objective in view throughout the round. The example below illustrates a decision.
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.
Making selections and moves
Tap pairs; use Hint and Undo. Keep the playing area visible while using these controls. Use one clear input at a time.
One way to understand the rules
A same-row pair needs an empty route between its endpoints. Use the example as a guide rather than a substitute for reading your board. Verify the rule before continuing.
An important reminder
Three corners are invalid. Read the feedback to see why an action did not have the expected result. Choose one rule to keep in mind for this round. Apply it consistently rather than guessing what another version might allow.
