How to play

Learn the objective before jumping into a new run.

  • Use the left and right arrow keys, or tap either side of the screen, to rotate the central hexagon.
  • Line up falling blocks with matching colors already on the same side.
  • Create groups of three or more before any stack reaches the outer boundary.

Controls

Keyboard and touch instructions for this game.

  • Use the left and right arrow keys to rotate the hexagon on desktop.
  • On touch screens, tap the left or right side to rotate.
  • Match three or more blocks of one color before a side overflows.

Tips

Small habits that can improve your score.

  • Keep all six sides balanced instead of building one tall color stack.
  • Rotate early so the target side is ready before a fast block arrives.
  • Use small matches to open space when a perfect color chain is too risky.
