Goal of the game
Blocks are coming one after another from the top of the screen in the game grid. During the fall, you can choose which column from A to E the block has to land in.
When you are all flooded of blocks, in other words when you are trying to put a block in a full column, you loose the game.
By placing 3 blocks or more of the same color one next to or one just above  another, you make them explode. They disappear from the grid and the blocks which were above them fall, possibly causing any further explosion in a chain reaction.
The more blocks you explode in the same shot, the more points you win.

In multiplayer mode, when you explode blocks, you can win bonus, which you can use on yourself or against your opponents. To use them, select first the target player and then press the letter corresponding to the bonus you want to use.
There are 8 different bonus : A, B, C, D, F, Q, R and W. Try to discover their effects !
In multiplayer mode, when you are not playing, you can chat with other players.
