- Aim for combos by setting up multiple clears with a single piece placement.
- Strategy Tips:
- Plan ahead: Look at the next piece and think about where it could fit best.
- Create gaps: Sometimes it’s beneficial to leave spaces that can be filled perfectly by future pieces.
- Set up combos: Try to arrange colors so that placing one piece triggers multiple clears.
- Use rotations wisely: Rotating pieces can often help you fit them into tight spaces or set up better color matches.
- Don’t neglect the sides: Remember to use the full width of the board to avoid building up too quickly in the center.
- Game Over:
