How to play Match Three

Use a short break to learn the rhythm of Match Three. Score 900 points in twenty-five moves. Keep the game area visible while you use its controls. Read the objective before making your first input. Choose a clear next step rather than rushing through the instructions.

8×8 board, move budget, cascades and no-legal-move handling.

A careful first round

Before your first action, say what you are trying to achieve. Then compare the result with the goal. Keep the objective visible.

Your goal

Score 900 points in twenty-five moves. The feedback beside the game helps you follow the round. Try to explain the aim in your own words.

Step by step

  1. Swap adjacent pieces to make a line of three or more.
  2. Matched pieces disappear.
  3. Falling pieces can trigger cascades.
  4. Reach the target before running out of moves.

Controls

Tap adjacent cells. Keep the playing area visible while using these controls. A new-round button replaces the current round.

A useful example

A horizontal swap can complete a vertical line. Focus on why the action is allowed, not only its outcome. Choose a deliberate next step.

Watch out for this

A swap making no match is reverted. A different version of the game may use a different rule. Compare the worked example with your own position. Use the reasoning, not an answer copied from a different board.
