What it does

A fast puzzle for short breaks.

Falling electrons

The dots are called electrons. They fall down the screen, a bit like Tetris, and you link them into a chain.

  • Three colors: red, green and blue
  • The board speeds up as you climb
Three linked electrons. The score is 17 and the multiplier is ×4.

It takes focus

There is always a next move to find, and a long chain takes minutes of unbroken concentration.

  • Pick the right dot on a busy, moving screen
  • Keep your chain and multiplier in mind while you react
  • Decide which dot to chase and when to play safe
A closed loop of three colors, at the top multiplier of ×16.

Runs are short

A run can be over in a minute. When it ends, you see your score, your time and the coins you earned.

  • Five minutes is a quick session
  • Fifteen minutes is enough to chase a high score
The end of a run that took 31 seconds.

How to play

Connect, close the loop, double the multiplier.

  1. 1

    Connect different colors

    Link the electrons into a chain. Each link must switch color, so never connect two of the same color in a row.

  2. 2

    Close the loop

    Link all three colors into a closed loop. That loop switches on your score multiplier.

  3. 3

    Double it, up to ×16

    Close another loop before the timer runs out and the multiplier doubles: ×2, ×4, ×8, ×16.

The run ends when the live electron falls off the screen, or when you tap the same color twice in a row.
