Compare the worked example with your own position. Use the reasoning, not an answer copied from a different board. Refer to the controls when needed.
What counts as success
Remove matching tiles connected by a path of at most two turns. Keep that objective in view throughout the round. Try to explain the aim in your own words.
Step by step
- Select equal tiles.
- The route must cross only empty cells.
- An outside-border path is allowed.
- Open connections by removing pairs.
How to use the controls
Tap pairs; use Hint and Undo. On a smaller screen, keep the active part of the board within view. Return to the rules if the result is unexpected.
An example to follow
A same-row pair needs an empty route between its endpoints. Apply the same reasoning to the position in your own round. Check the stated objective.
Where a round can go wrong
Three corners are invalid. Read the feedback to see why an action did not have the expected result. Take enough time to read a new position. If a game has a timer, learn its controls first rather than searching for them during the round.
