Objective:
In this skill-based game, the objective is to place as many shapes on the grid as possible and clear the maximum number of rows and columns.
Gameplay:
- Three shapes appear on the screen simultaneously, and players must swiftly place these shapes on the grid.
- Cognitive abilities are essential to strategically place shapes in a manner that completes either a row or a column, as completing one automatically clears it and creates more space for additional shapes.
- Players can strategize to complete two or more rows or columns simultaneously or consecutively to earn a bonus.
- Advance planning is crucial to (a) fit all three shapes efficiently and (b) leave enough space for upcoming shapes.
- Players can improve their performance through practice and increased familiarity with the game.
Scoring:
- Players receive 10 points for each block placed on the grid. For example, placing a shape with 5 blocks earns the player 50 points.
- Completing a row or column grants the player 200 points.
- Completing 2 or more rows or columns simultaneously triggers a combo bonus. Completing 2 rows or columns at once awards 1.5 times the completed points (total 600 points), and completing 3 rows or columns simultaneously awards 2 times the completed points (1200 points), and so on.
- Completing 2 rows or columns simultaneously also earns the player a streak bonus of 500 points.
