How to play
- Pick one of the three pieces under the board, then tap a cell to set it down.
- A gap is an empty cell with filled cells on every side. While the board has no gaps, the cells of each piece you place score double.
- Fill a whole row or column to clear it. Clearing lines also removes gaps in them.
- When none of the pieces left in your hand fit anywhere, the game ends. Your best score is saved on this device.

Tips and strategy
- Look at the cells around the piece before you set it down. A fit that traps one empty cell costs the doubling.
- Place pieces edge to edge. Pieces that leave a single empty cell next to a wall are the usual culprit.
- A line clear is the cure for a gap, so aim for one when you are stuck with one.
- A one-cell piece can fill a gap and bring the doubling back.
FAQ
- What counts as a gap?
- An empty cell whose neighbours, including diagonals, are all filled or off the board.
- When does the tidy bonus apply?
- After a move, if no gaps are left on the board, the cells of the piece you placed score again.
- Is my best score saved?
- Yes, on this device only. Nothing is sent anywhere.
