  • Basics
    • Goal
      • The goal of this game is to align the dots and square such that they all turn gold.
      • To turn the circles and squares gold you must match 3 (or more) in a row vertically or horizontally.
        • Diagonal matches do not count.
    • Matching
      • Circles can only be matched with circles.
      • Squares can only be matched with squares.
        • Squares first appear in level 9.
      • A particular circle or square can be matched both horizontally and diagonally.
    • Features
      • Fixed placements: Some circles or squares are not a part of a snake but are a fixed portion of the level.
        • You must build around them and incorporate them into your matches of 3 or more in a row.
        • These first appear in level 7.
      • Laser beams: Laser beams must be neutralized by running into a plus sign on a snake.
        • These first appear in level 20.
        • Some stages have multiple laser beams on them.
        • It is not enough to bump into a snake with a plus sign – the laser beam needs to directly hit the positive sign directly.
      • Deflectors: These allow you to guide laser beams around corners.
        • These first appear in level 25.
        • A laser that is guided around a corner still needs to eventually run into a positive symbol.
        • You can use multiple deflectors in conjunction to redirect a laser beam twice.
  • Levels
    • This game has 28 stages which are unlocked sequentially.
      • You can go back and replay previously beat levels at any time.
    • Winning vs losing
      • You win by getting all of the icons to turn gold.
        • Get the squares and circles into groups of 3 (or more) in a row vertically or horizontally.
        • Direct each laser beam into a plus symbol, either directly or by using a deflector.
      • You can’t lose in this game as there is no move limit or time limit.
        • If you get stuck use the reset button in the upper right corner.
  • Tips
    • Expect to make a lot of back and forth moves, or to have to drag snakes in the wrong direction quite often to turn them around.
    • Even when you get a particular snake into position you will often need to move it out of position to enable turning around another snake & to position the second snake before going back to reposition the first snake.
    • If you make a mistake moving an extra square grab the other end of the snake and drag it back to where it was the step prior.
    • If you get stuck you can use the walkthrough video below to see solutions to all 28 stages of the game.
• Target Audience
  • The game is suited for players who like logic puzzle games.
  • The game has no adult themed content.
