## What is RainEl?

Forget everything you know about match-3.

In Rainbow Elimination, you don't swap two balls — you slide an entire row or column. The empty space moves with your swipe, and matches form perpendicular to the direction you slide. One move ripples across the whole board in a way no ordinary match game does.

HOW TO PLAY
• Swipe any row or column to shift the balls
• 2 or more same-colored balls lining up across your swipe = a match
• Matched balls vanish — your goal is to clear the entire 9×9 grid
• Stuck? Add a couple of fresh balls, or swap any two into place

WHY IT'S DIFFERENT
• No swapping adjacent tiles — you control whole lines at once
• Every swipe can trigger chains you didn't plan for
• Clean, colorful, no clutter — just you and the grid
• Quick sessions that fit a commute or a coffee break

Simple to pick up, surprisingly deep to master. Can you clear the rainbow?
