Place the bricks in columns so they can merge into bigger ones. Full rows of the same colors will fuse together. The trick is, it looks simple, but it gets crazy fast in no time! How to play: - Blocks will fall down and pile up. - Click on any column to change the block destination. - Drag down to accelerate the block. - If a block falls into another block of the same color it will merge creating a darker block. - If a row of blocks of the same color is formed, it will be cleared. - The game is over if any column reaches the top limit. The game has been designed to perfection, taking care of every single detail. Enjoy Mega Shades!
