Rules of the game

General rules
When the game starts, you will notice a column of blocks start to fall from the top of the screen. It will consist of three(two,one) tiles in random order. The object of the game is to arrange the blocks as they fall so that they form a combination of three or more of the same tile in any direction. When such an event occurs, the blocks will explode and any blocks on top will fall to replace the spaces. The combinations can be vertical, horizontal, diagonal, or any combination of the three.
The falling pieces can be moved left or right. Also, by using the down key, the piece can be sped along its way to the bottom of the screen. The tiles themselves can be cycled up, but the order can never be changed. In the right of the screen, there is a display showing current score, level, blocks and the number of blocks needed to advance to the next level (object). The next piece to appear will also be displayed on the screen. The keys used to move and cycle up the pieces can be defined in the Control options dialog.
