Read full description

iLines is a new life of classical puzzle game with simple gameplay but that will challenge you to select only carefully thought out moves. You will be impressed by its colorful, minimalist, beautiful design. How to play: The game starts with a 9x9 board with some balls chosen out of seven different colors. You can move one ball per turn, and you may only move a ball to a particular place if there is a path (linked set of vertical and horizontal empty cells) between the current position of the ball and the desired destination. The goal is to remove balls by forming lines (horizontal, vertical or diagonal) of at least five balls of the same color. If you do form such lines of at least five balls of the same color, the balls in those lines disappear and you gains one turn and score. If not, three new balls are added, and the game continues until the board is full. Your goal is very simple: keep your board clean as long as possible and score as much points as you can. Super simple, surprisingly challenging. And, you can share your score to the global leaderboard. Thank you and good luck in your playing time.
