## What is Runework?

Runework is an endless swipe puzzle: read a hexagon of stacked magic orbs and cast every rune in the right order before the enemy finishes its spell.

SWIPE TO CAST
Drag across the orbs to draw letter-shaped runes like L, Z or O. Every orb you cross pops, and the next orb of that corner rises.

THE ORDER IS THE PUZZLE
Cast every rune and the board is empty. Use a corner too early and some runes will fit nowhere. Undo a cast or restart the trial whenever you like.

ENDLESS TRIALS
Every trial is generated and checked by a solver, so every one can be cleared. The first trials teach the basics; after that two, three or four colours, empty corners and the big W, M and O runes keep every board fresh.

A DAILY TRIAL
Once you have cleared ten trials, a new Daily Trial waits every day: the same board for every player.

HELP WHEN YOU NEED IT
Glow lights up the runes that fit right now, Hint shows the next right cast. Both cost shards, and shards are earned by playing.

Ten painted enemies, twelve rune shapes, four orb colours. Plays offline. In English, German, French, Spanish, Japanese and Simplified Chinese.
