Tips and tricks
- Count. Tiles, moves, colours, matches — many puzzles are secretly arithmetic, and a quick count reveals the plan.
- Read the whole board before your first move. In most puzzle games the first move is the most important one, and it deserves ten seconds of looking.
- Do not memorise solutions, memorise principles. The level after this one will use the same idea in a new arrangement.
- Work backwards from the goal. Ask what the final state has to look like, then ask what the state before that must be.
- Because this is a Tower Defense game, build at corners where the path doubles back so towers get two passes at every enemy.
