How to play

Drag a stick of three gems from the tray onto the board. Tap a stick first to swap its color order. Three or more gems of the same color in a row, column or diagonal clear. Every gem in a column that lost gems falls to the bottom, and each new match it makes doubles your points. A star jewel clears every gem of the color it lands on. The game ends when nothing in your tray fits.

  • Diagonal lines count too, so look for matches in every direction.
  • Save a star jewel for the colour that covers most of the board.
