How to play
Swap two neighbouring gems (up, down, left or right) to line up three or more of the same colour in a row or column. Tap one gem and then the other, or swipe. If a swap doesn’t make a match, the gems swap back.
Matched gems are cleared, the gems above fall and new gems drop in. New matches made by falling gems keep the chain going, and each later round of a chain is worth more, up to 5 times the points. The game ends when no swap can make a match.
- Explosion gem: match 4 in a line. When it is cleared, it also clears the 3×3 area around it.
- Star gem: match two lines that cross (an L, T or + shape). When it is cleared, it also clears its whole row and column.
- Rainbow gem: match 5 or more in a line. Swap it with any gem to clear every gem of that colour, or swap two Rainbow gems to clear the whole board.
How to Play on the main menu shows all of this with pictures.
Common questions
How is my game saved?
The game saves automatically after each move. Continue resumes your last successfully saved game. If a save fails, the game shows a message, and your most recent progress may not be saved.
Why don’t I see Continue?
Continue appears only when there is an unfinished game. A game that has ended can’t be continued; tap New Game to play again. Your best score is kept either way.
The game says my saved game couldn’t be restored.
This can happen if the saved data on your iPhone is damaged or can’t be read. Start a new game to keep playing. If it happens again, please email me.
I can’t hear any sound.
Check that Sound Effects is on in Settings. The game follows your iPhone’s silent mode: when silent mode is on, the game plays no sounds. Also check your volume.
Can I turn off vibration?
Yes. Turn off Vibration in Settings. Sound Effects and Vibration can each be turned on or off.
I’m stuck. Is there a hint?
Tap Hint during a game to see one possible swap.
Will my progress move to a new iPhone?
There are no accounts and the game has no online save, so progress does not sync between devices. Depending on your settings, iOS may include the game’s saved data in your iCloud or computer backup, but a backup is not a sync service and restoring one is not guaranteed to bring back your game. Deleting the app removes the game’s data from that iPhone.
Do I need an internet connection?
No. The game works fully offline.
Are there ads or in-app purchases?
No. There are no ads, no in-app purchases and no sign-in.
Privacy
The game itself doesn’t send your data to me or to anyone else. Read the full Privacy Policy.
