Making your moves
- Swap adjacent pieces to make a line of three or more.

Controls

A closer look at one example
A horizontal swap can complete a vertical line. Compare this with the rule that governs the move. Consider the next action carefully.
Pay attention to this rule
A swap making no match is reverted. Read the feedback to see why an action did not have the expected result. Take enough time to read a new position. If a game has a timer, learn its controls first rather than searching for them during the round.
