How to Play

Tips for Playing
- Look for moves that create four or five-gem matches for powerful special gems.
- Prioritize goals over random matches—always aim for the required star gems or obstacles.
- Plan two moves ahead to set up cascades that clear more tiles at once.
- Use corner and edge pieces to your advantage—they can be harder to match, so focus on them early.
- When stuck, try swapping at the top of the board to trigger falling gems that might align naturally.
