How to play
The rules are brilliantly simple, yet the gameplay is utterly engrossing.
You are presented with a game board. Your task in the game is to move multi-colored balls, arranging them into continuous lines of the same color.
To do this, first click on the ball you wish to move (it will become highlighted), then click on an empty destination square.
An important movement rule: A colored ball can only reach the chosen square if there is an unobstructed path to it. Paths are formed only vertically and horizontally; a ball cannot jump over other pieces or move diagonally. If no path exists, the move cannot be made.
Once you form a line of five or more balls of the same color (horizontally, vertically, or diagonally), they will disappear, earning you points and freeing up space.
But you must play strategically! Every move that does not result in a line disappearing adds three new, randomly placed balls to the board.
The game ends when there is no empty space left on the board.
