Tips and tricks
- Count. Tiles, moves, colours, matches — many puzzles are secretly arithmetic, and a quick count reveals the plan.
- Use undo or restart freely. Experimenting is how you learn the mechanics; there is no penalty for trying an idea.
- Play with sound on if the game has it; audio cues often confirm a correct move before the animation finishes.
- 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.

The controls are tap and drag based, which makes it comfortable on touch screens as well as with a mouse.
