How to play

Swap two neighboring gems to line up three or more of the same kind, across or down. Matched gems shatter, the ones above fall into the gaps, and anything that lines up on the way down counts too, for more points with every step of the cascade.

Special gems

FlareMatch four in a row. When it’s matched again, it blows up everything around it.
CrossMake an L or a T shape. It clears its whole row and column.
PrismMatch five in a row. Swap it with any gem to clear every gem of that kind.

Combos

Swap two special gems into each other for something bigger. Two Flares make a huge blast, a Flare and a Cross clear three rows and three columns, and a Prism turns every gem of the other’s kind into a copy of it. Two Prisms clear the board.

Controls

Click a gem and then a neighbor, or drag a gem toward the one you want to swap with. On a keyboard, the arrow keys move, Enter picks a gem and an arrow key swaps it. H shows a hint and Esc pauses.
