Practice with a purpose

Take enough time to read a new position. If a game has a timer, learn its controls first rather than searching for them during the round. Keep the objective visible.

Start here and follow along

  1. Start a round and watch the highlighted cells.
  2. Wait until the board hides the pattern.
  3. Select the positions you remember; order does not matter.
  4. Complete the pattern to advance.

How to interact with the game

Use the on-screen controls with a mouse or touch. Read a button’s label before selecting it. Check any mode label before starting.
