Tips and tricks

  • Look for forced moves — places where only one option is legal. Solving those first shrinks the problem.
  • 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.
  • Use undo or restart freely. Experimenting is how you learn the mechanics; there is no penalty for trying an idea.
  • Do not memorise solutions, memorise principles. The level after this one will use the same idea in a new arrangement.
  • Because this is a Hypercasual game, find the rhythm of the single mechanic — that is the entire skill.
