GAME RULES
The goal is to remove all the gems from the board and get the highest
score. In order to do this you'll have to slide gems from sides of the board.
If you tap on a gem that is located somewhere along the border of the
board, a new gem will appear close to it, and it will begin to slide towards
the opposite side of the board. It will slide until it hits the border of the
board or another gem that has a neighbour gem along the line of movement of
the sliding gem. If that gem doesn't have such a neighbour, the sliding
gem will push it until it will hit the board's border or a gem. When four or
more gems of the same color come together (including sliding gem or gem it has
pushed) they all disappear. More gems removed at once - more points you'll
get. If you remove all the gems of some color - that type of gems won't appear
anymore and your score is doubled. If you fail to remove any gems with your
move - number of attempts for that round is counted down and when it goes down
to zero some new gems appear and new round begins.
Rules of the game seem to be tricky, and if you feel that you don't quite
understand them just watch the Demo and everything should become clear.
There are four games: Unicolor, Quadcolor, SmartMix and Advanced Mix games.
Try all of them and play games that suite your taste.
Be sure, this smart puzzle game will keep you busy for quite a while.
Good luck!
