- Beat the online adventure by defeating 3 opponents in a row, but lose and start all over (online 1v1 or 2v2).

Your plan at your pace
- Move pieces left, right, down and up! Pieces don't descend by themselves. Take your time to think, and move fast when you can!
- Not happy with the pieces in your field? Just flush them away by holding the flush button.
- You can switch between 2 fields. So you don't need to mess up your amazing combo if something else needs to be done first.
- (and there's no garbage from your opponent)
Keeping online alive
