Swap neighbouring gems into lines of three, hit the level target, and save moves for a bonus.

Tap a gem and then the one beside it, or simply drag it over. Three or more identical gems in a straight line burst and score. Reach the level’s target score within 25 moves. Moves left over turn into 30 bonus points each.

About this game
A bright eight-by-eight grid of six kinds of gems and a simple goal: reach the target score before you run out of moves. Trade the places of two side-by-side gems to make a line of three or more alike, and they burst while new gems tumble down from above, sometimes setting off a chain of fresh matches all by themselves. Each level gives you twenty-five moves, and every move you don’t need is worth thirty bonus points at the end. There’s no timer, so take a breath and look for the swap that does the most.

Family tips
Work near the bottom of the board when you can. Clearing low gems makes everything above fall further, which gives the new arrangement more chances to form surprise chain reactions.
Look for swaps that make two matches at once, or a line of four or five. One clever move that clears a lot is better than three tidy little matches.
Once you’ve reached the target, don’t waste spare moves. The level ends with a bonus for every unused move, so finishing early is often worth more than squeezing out a few extra matches.
