Tips for clearing every board

A few small habits make boards quicker and earn more stars.

Start at the edges

Tiles on the outside can use the empty border, so they are the easiest to join. Clearing the edges also opens paths into the middle.

Look for blocked pairs

If two pictures of a kind sit behind each other, clear the tiles around them early, before the board fills with dead ends.

Choose which pair to join first

When a picture appears four times, think about which two to join first. Sometimes the right choice leaves a free path for the other two.

Save helpers for hard boards

A hint is handy, but playing a few seconds longer often reveals the pair yourself. Keep Shuffle and Pop for boards with stones, ice or layers.

Play the Daily Puzzle

One board a day is a pleasant habit, keeps your streak going and earns coins for helpers.
