Tips and tricks

  • Work backwards from the goal. Ask what the final state has to look like, then ask what the state before that must be.
  • Do not memorise solutions, memorise principles. The level after this one will use the same idea in a new arrangement.
  • 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.
  • Count. Tiles, moves, colours, matches — many puzzles are secretly arithmetic, and a quick count reveals the plan.
  • Because this is a Arcade game, restart early when a run goes wrong instead of grinding out a poor score.
