Move the balls around and get rid of them in various ways. But watch out, the board is small and it gets crowded quickly! Free space is crucial here and you will need it badly after just a few bad moves. Take your time and play smart, considering the incoming balls. The rest is intuition and strategy. Align balls in the bigger patterns to create helpful lifesavers, like a Jumper Ball which can fly anywhere! Or, stick with a good old-fashioned Bomb Ball. Yeah, it will blow some extra space for you :) Sounds very simple... but hey - try to score 1000 points and we can talk.  Let's keep the ball rolling! --- Thank you so much for playing and supporting us!
