Pro Strategies & Winning Tips
- Scan the bottom of the board first; clearing lower tiles creates cascade reactions across the top.
- Conserve rare power-ups and color clearers until moves are severely restricted.
- Work backwards from the level requirement (e.g. ice blocks, cookies) rather than making arbitrary matches.
- Take your time; most puzzle stages penalize wasted moves rather than elapsed seconds.
