You can choose any of the seven rows or columns in which to add the next cube. Cubes can only be added from the two front sides of the board, not from the rear two sides. Added cubes slide along their row or column until reaching a cube that's already on the board, or until reaching the far end of the board. When you form a chain, points are scored and the cubes that make up the chain are removed from the board. Cubes above them then drop down to fill in the unoccupied spaces. When this happens, additional chains can be formed. A second or subsequent chain formed on the same turn is called a "Cubis" and gives you bonus points.
Various Cubes and their Information are given below :
Normal Cubes : These Cubes are Start on the board on the start of the game level & they are of various Colours.There is a small penalty for each Normal Cube left on the board at the end of the level.
Various Nature of the Normal Cubes are :--
If a Normal Cube reaches the edge of the board, it stops.
If it reaches a Stone Cube, it stops.
If it reaches a Cracked Cube, it destroys the Cracked Cube, and continues in its path.
When it reaches a Normal Cube or a Star Cube with nothing behind it, it pushes that cube one square, and then stops.
When it reaches a Normal Cube or a Star Cube with a Cracked Cube behind it, it pushes that cube one square, destroying the Cracked Cube, and then stops.
When it reaches a Normal Cube or a Star Cube with any non-Cracked Cube behind it, it stops.
Star Cubes : These cubes may be present on the board at the start of the level, but are never part of the stream of cubes to be added. These cubes gives you bonus for their removal & large penalty if you leave them on the board at the end of the level.
Wedge Cubes : These cubes are never part of the starting setup of the board, but may be part of the stream of cubes to be added. Once added, they turn into Normal Cubes, and in some circumstances can lift up cubes already on the board.
Osmosis Cubes : These cubes are never part of the starting setup of the board, but may be part of the stream of cubes to be added. Once added, they turn into Normal Cubes, and in some circumstances can change the color of cubes already on the board. They come in all six colors.
Cracked Cubes : These cubes may be part of the starting setup of the board, but are never part of the stream of cubes to be added. Normal Cubes on the board will turn into Cracked Cubes if they drop two layers, or if they drop one layer and have another cube on top of them. Cracked Cubes will be destroyed by any Normal Cube that impacts them, without impeding its progress. There is a small penalty of the cracked cubes if they left on the board at the end of the play.
Stone Cubes : These cubes may be part of the starting setup of the board but not in the streams of cubes to be added. They cannot be pushed, and they do not drop even if the cube under them is removed. They can only be removed from the board by Laser Cubes. These cubs come only in Grey colour.
Lazer Cubes : These cubes are not the part of the cubes starting up the Game, but may be part of the stream of cubes to be added. Rather than sliding into their row or column, they shoot into it, destroying the first cube they reach. These cubes are used to destroy stone cubes. Destroying a cube with a Laser Cube only reduces your "Cubes To Go" counter by 1 |
