Line Arcade is a simple and addictive puzzle game. The game consists of a grid of size 9 x 9 squares. Balls of 6 different colors enter the grid three at a time. The player scores points by lining up 5 or more balls of the same color in horizontal, vertical or diagonal formations. Simply tap a ball and then tap the desired square where you wish to move it. The ball can move to a square only if there is an open path (i.e. combination of vertical and horizontal empty squares) from the source to the destination cell. When a formation of 5 or more balls of the same color is created, the entire formation is removed and no fresh balls enter the grid for that turn. Short, simple and addictive, Line Arcade promises loads of fun.
