## What is Chain?

Don't break the chain!
CHAIN is a stylish, strategic merge puzzle. Connect matching tiles on a 5x5 board, evolve them into bigger numbers, set off cascades and chase a new high score. One smart move changes everything.

How to Play:

• Drag to connect matching tiles, release to merge
• Longer chains and shapes pay bigger bonuses
• Keep the board clear before it fills up
• Break the blockers before they take over

Features:

• Tiles evolve all the way from 2 to 256
• 3 power-ups: lightning, bomb and star
• Blockers with 2 or 3 layers that fight back
• Chain, shape, combo, cascade and streak bonuses
• Cascade reactions up to 5 levels deep
• 9 score milestones with real rewards
• 3 neon themes that rotate as your score grows
• Game Center leaderboard and 8 achievements
• Endless mode, no timer, no pressure
• Plays offline, on iPhone and iPad

Why You Will Love CHAIN:

• Every move matters
• Easy to learn, hard to put down
• Relaxing but brain teasing
• Great for a short break or a long run
