Every twenty seconds
Every twenty seconds the machine drops a handful of new balls onto the board. Every move you make resets the clock, so keep moving. A move that clears nothing brings the next drop straight away.

Balls
A board of wells. Balls keep dropping in. Line up five of one colour before the board fills up.
The classic colour‑lines puzzle, played against a machine that never stops. Drag a ball along the empty wells to any spot it can reach — across, down or round a corner — and line up balls of one colour in any direction, including the diagonals. Complete a line and it clears, with points for every ball in it.
How it plays
A clock that
drops balls
Any direction counts
Across, down, and both diagonals. Five balls of one colour on a large board, four on a small one. Sometimes the machine completes a line by accident — you still get the points.
Nine stages
Your score carries you through nine stages. Each one brings more colours into play — seven at the start, eleven by the end — and bigger drops. Fill the board and the game is over. Your best score stays.
A board that fits your screen
The grid is laid out for the display you are on: a tall narrow board on a phone, a wide one on an iPad or a Mac window. Bigger boards mean bigger drops and longer lines — it evens out.
Pick up where you left off
Leave a game mid‑way and it is waiting when you come back — on the same device, exactly as you left it.
