Read full description

Enter the world of Layer Clash, a unique card puzzle where strategy and timing collide. In Layer Clash, your goal is to clear stacks of layered cards by matching their outer colors. Pick cards from your deck, choose wisely among your three available hand slots, and place your card on any lane. If your card’s outer layer matches the front card’s outer layer in the lane, both layers vanish. Keep matching to break cards completely and clear the path. It will not be easy. Obstacles like Frozen Cards, Unknown Cards, Locked Lanes, and powerful Bomb and Rainbow Cards test your strategy skills. Use Bomb Cards to clear multiple lanes at once. Drop Rainbow Cards to match any color instantly. Deal with hidden Unknown Cards by clearing what is in front of them and unlock new lanes by collecting keys through smart matches. You must prevent the lanes from crossing the danger line. If the stack of cards in any lane crosses the dashed line, you lose. Finish your deck, clear your hand, and survive without crossing the line to win. Think ahead. Plan each move. Manage your deck, your hand, your trash, and your lanes. Every decision matters in Layer Clash, the ultimate test of layer-by-layer clearing and chain reactions. Are you ready to master the clash?
