Moving the balls

You can move the balls like in a slice puzzle. You click a ball near the empty cell and that ball will move to that space, leaving its cell empty for your next move.

Cleaning balls

cleaning balls

When you move a ball an it hits a ball of the same color, both will turn gray. That balls are clean! You can move them, if you need to.

The score, cleaning a line, is:

10 points for cleaning the 1st ball
20 points for cleaning the 2nd ball
30 points for cleaning the 3rd
40 points for cleaning the 4th
50 points for cleaning the 5th and next balls

The ball you moved doesn't score.

Game Over

The game ends when there's one ball of one color and consequently you can't clean it or when the time reaches zero.

Each time you arrive a new round, you get some more time to keep playing.

Play!
