Your goal
Remove matching tiles connected by a path of at most two turns. Keep that objective in view throughout the round. Follow this game’s rules rather than another version’s.
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. Read a button’s label before selecting it. Avoid pressing the same control repeatedly while a move is being processed.
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. Keep the controls nearby.
Watch out for this
Three corners are invalid. Compare the situation with the worked example. After a move, check what changed. Decide which rule explains the new state before acting again.
