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.
- Use undo or restart freely. Experimenting is how you learn the mechanics; there is no penalty for trying an idea.
- 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 Match 3 game, work from the bottom of the board so cascades do the work for you.
