How to play

Break the rubble with chess pieces.

  1. Tap a piece in the tray. Dots show where it breaks rubble, rings where it sets off a statue. Tap a square to see exactly what it hits, then tap it again to place it. It fires like a chess capture: the first thing on each of its lines is hit. Rubble it hits breaks.
  2. The piece stays as a statue. A statue that is hit fires too, then crumbles and breaks the rubble around it. Each fires once per turn.
  3. Every link in a chain multiplies the points: x1, x2, x3. The preview shows exactly what will break and chain.
  4. A rubble row rises every few pieces, sooner as your score grows, and lifts your statues too. If rubble or a statue is in the top row when it rises, the game ends.
