Your mission: move all golden blocks to Gold places. Use TNT blocks to move blocks: 1. Touch the screen in void places to set a TNT block (You can't place another TNT block until this explodes). 2. Touch again over this TNT block to detonate it. Blast affects North, South, East, and West next neighbors. Explosions affect in different ways over each block: · TNT Blocks: If a block hits it, it explodes and the blast affects next neighbors. · Wooden blocks: If a block hits it, it is stopped but wooden block disintegrate. If a next neighbors explodes then the wooden block disintegrate. · Metal and golden blocks: If a block hits it, it is stopped, and this metal or golden block begin to move in same way and direction. If a next neighbors explodes then metal or golden block begin to move (same way and direction as the expansive wave). · Stone Blocks: They are indestructibles. They stops movement of all other blocks that hit them. Explosions don't affect them. To complete missions you have a TIMER. Look at the score panel. It's your only time indicator. If you want to make a level restarts because you have done wrong movements, push red button in top center of cave. Complete 28 levels!! Good Luck.
