The purpose of your moves

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.

The steps to play

1. Select equal tiles.
2. The route must cross only empty cells.
3. An outside-border path is allowed.
4. Open connections by removing pairs.

Getting comfortable with the controls

Tap pairs; use Hint and Undo. A careful first action helps you become familiar with the layout. Read the example below alongside these instructions.

Try this example

A same-row pair needs an empty route between its endpoints. Apply the same reasoning to the position in your own round. Take a moment to compare.

A common point of confusion

Three corners are invalid. Check the rule before repeating the action. Locate the buttons and input area before beginning a long round. Use the on-screen labels to avoid an accidental restart.
