More about this game
Your goal is to clear the board by popping every loop and bar. You do this by dragging pieces to spin or slide them, carefully aligning their openings with the clips holding them. Once a piece has no clips left gripping it, it pops and disappears. As you progress, the tangles become more complex, with loops gripping each other and bars threaded through multiple rings. A level ends when you successfully pop every piece, earning you a score based on your combo.
Tips
- A loop cannot spin if its own clips are currently gripping another piece. You must free the targets of its clips before the loop itself is allowed to move.
- When a bar is threaded through a loop's opening, the loop will automatically turn with the bar as you slide it, which can help you reposition hard-to-reach openings.
- Save your firework boosters for levels where multiple loops are tightly interlocked. A firework automatically targets and pops three loops that grip the fewest other pieces.
FAQ
- Why won't a loop spin when I drag it?
- A loop is locked in place if its own clips are gripping other pieces. You must slide the other pieces out of those clips before the loop itself can move.
- How do I get more boosters to help me?
- You unlock the firework at level 4 and the hammer at level 8. After that, you receive a gift of two random boosters every six levels you successfully clear.
- What does the hammer booster do in the game?
- The hammer allows you to instantly smash any loop you tap. This frees any pieces it was holding and removes it from the board, which is perfect for breaking deadlocks.
