Description
A board of wells. Balls keep dropping in. Line up five of one colour before the board fills up.
Matrix Balls is 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.
A CLOCK THAT DROPS BALLS
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.
Sometimes the machine completes a line by accident. You still get the points.
IT GETS HARDER
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. The line you need is four balls on a small board, five on a large one.
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.
