A game of strategy and speed. 1. The object of the game is to remove the orbs on the screen by getting 3 or more orbs of the same color in a row or column. Every so many seconds, orbs will appear at the bottom. Once the orbs reach the top, the game is over. 2. A SUPER ORB is a necessity in the game to stay alive. To obtain a Super Orb, you need to get combinations. A combination is when you can remove multiple lines with a single Orb drop. Also, you will obtain a Super Orb if you get 5 in a row of the same color. Use these Super Orbs to remove a column of orbs that you choose. At the beginning of the game, you will start with 3 Super Orbs. 3. A lightning orb is used to wipe away a color of your choice. Place the lightning orb on the color you want removed and watch all those orbs disappear. Coins are used to purchase the lightning orb at the beginning of the game. 4. For every orb that is cleared, you will earn a coin. Coins can be used to purchase super orbs or lightning orbs before the start of the game. 5. Login to facebook to see how your friends are doing, make sure you are on the top of the list. 6. Happy Orbing!!! Have fun and please rate the game.
