## What is Crystal Vein Chronicle?

Clear it now, or let it grow?

Crystal Vein Chronicle is a collecting block puzzle where you grow ores on an 8×8 board, mine them, and record them in your Mineral Codex.

Place your three blocks on the board and complete a row or column to mine it. But clearing right away is not always the best move. Cells that survive next to a mined line grow, step by step, from Rock to Iron, Copper, Silver, Gold, Platinum and Diamond.

Mining higher ores can leave a "!" mark on the blocks around them. Marked blocks also grow each time they survive nearby mining. Grow them before you mine them, and you may uncover rare crystals you will not find anywhere else.

■ Collect 14 minerals
7 common ores and 7 rare crystals, each recorded in your codex with how many you have mined, the day you first found it, and stories that deepen as you collect more. Deep below sleeps the Endless Vein Crystal, which only the most devoted miners will ever meet.

■ A board that makes you think
Clear lines for points, or leave them to grow your ores? The more you let blocks survive around higher ores, the better your chance of a rare find, so the same piece can mean something different every time.

■ Satisfying mining
Before you drop a piece, the lines it will clear light up. The moment they clear, light runs out from where you placed it, the ores swell and shatter, and shards fly. Colors and textures that change with each growth stage, plus sound effects and music, make every mined ore feel earned.

■ Easy to keep playing
Rotate your pieces, draw new ones, undo a move, or revive when you are stuck. Your board saves automatically, so you can pick up right where you left off.

■ Mine every day
Your points add up to the score for the day you earned them. Look back at today's score, your total, and charts by day, week and month while you complete your own Mineral Codex. Undo refills to 3 every day.

■ Available in English, Tiếng Việt and Japanese
Switch languages any time from the home screen.

Grow the rock, read the vein, and mine an ore no one has seen.
Your own Crystal Vein Chronicle begins with today's first move.
