Chain them and melt the whole board away • Out of moves? Add a fresh line and keep the run alive EASY TO LEARN, IMPOSSIBLE TO PUT DOWN Your first level takes seconds. Then the boards grow, the layouts get sneakier, and hard levels bring clutch moments where one clever link saves the entire run. Hints, hammers, and swaps have your back when you need a nudge.
