Tips and tricks
- If you are stuck for more than a couple of minutes, step away and come back. Puzzle solutions often arrive when you stop forcing them.
- Play with sound on if the game has it; audio cues often confirm a correct move before the animation finishes.
- Work backwards from the goal. Ask what the final state has to look like, then ask what the state before that must be.
- 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.
- Because this is a Endless game, consistency beats bravery — a safe lane held for a long time outscores risky bonuses.
- Because this is a Hypercasual game, find the rhythm of the single mechanic — that is the entire skill.
