An introduction to playing Match Three
Choose a round of Match Three and settle into its rules. Score 900 points in twenty-five moves. Use the example below to understand a decision. Treat the first round as a chance to learn the controls. Check the relevant rule before repeating a move.
8×8 board, move budget, cascades and no-legal-move handling.
A focus for your next round
Compare the worked example with your own position. Use the reasoning, not an answer copied from a different board. Notice the feedback after each input.
The purpose of your moves
Score 900 points in twenty-five moves. An attractive position is not enough unless the goal is met. Review the board or playing area as it changes.
Start here and follow along
- Swap adjacent pieces to make a line of three or more.
- Matched pieces disappear.
- Falling pieces can trigger cascades.
- Reach the target before running out of moves.
Getting comfortable with the controls
Tap adjacent cells. Use the control method described here for this activity. Use the visible help when you are unsure of the next input.
A useful example
A horizontal swap can complete a vertical line. Use the example as a guide rather than a substitute for reading your board. Keep the game’s format in mind.
A common point of confusion
A swap making no match is reverted. Take a moment to reassess the position before continuing. 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.
