Ring Blast

Match. Merge. Blast. Drop glowing neon rings onto a 4×4 board. Line up 3 of the same color across any row, column, or diagonal — and watch them shatter in a storm of light and particles. Sounds simple? Think again. LAYERED STRATEGY Every ring piece holds up to 3 concentric layers — large, medium, and small — each a different color. Stack them on top of existing rings. One cell can hold all three layers. Every placement is a decision. Every decision shapes your fate. CHAIN REACTIONS Match a line and all rings of that color in those cells are obliterated. But the chain doesn't stop there — cascading matches trigger Multi combos and Chain multipliers that send your score into orbit. WILD RINGS Build up energy with every move and elimination. When the meter fills, a prismatic Wild Ring appears — a shape-shifting piece that matches ANY color. Time it right and unleash devastation. TRIPLE BLAST Fill one cell with three rings of the same color and trigger an implosion — a collapsing vortex of light that clears the cell in spectacular fashion. SEE THE FUTURE A preview of the next piece lets you plan ahead. This isn't luck — it's precision. Set up Multi-line combos. Engineer chain reactions. Outsmart the board. FEATURES · 4×4 board with 24 elimination lines · Cross-layer color matching — any ring, any layer · Full-color elimination — every matching ring in the cell is destroyed · Multi combo (simultaneous lines) × Chain combo (cascading) scoring · Wild Ring energy system with rainbow animation · Next-piece preview for strategic planning · Undo, Trash, and Scope power-ups · Neon bloom visuals with laser beams, shockwaves, and particle explosions · Haptic feedback tuned to every action · Breathing dark background with ambient light orbs · Best score tracking One more ring. One more line. One more chain. How far can you go?
