How to Play

Clusters of lettered spheres fall from above. They never clear on their own — the only way down is words. Trace a chain of touching spheres (including diagonals) to spell a word of 3+ letters and blow it apart.

Scoring

Longer words scale hard. Chain words back‑to‑back before the combo meter empties to stack a multiplier. Words of 5+ release a shockwave that shatters everything adjacent to your path; 7+ detonates the bottom two rows.

Special Spheres

✦ Gold — doubles the word's score.
✷ Wild — stands in for any letter.
◈ Bomb — detonates a 3×3 blast when used.
▣ Stone — no letter. Only blasts remove it.

Powerups

Words of 4+ letters can drop a powerup into your three slots — the longer the word, the better the odds. F fires the front one, G cycles the queue. Six help you (vowel rain, shuffle, freeze, hammer, wildcards, purge); three are weapons you can only fire online (scramble, blackout, quake).

Multiplayer

Up to four players, anywhere in the world, over Photon Realtime. Everyone gets the same piece feed from the same seed, so the only difference is what you do with it. Words of 4+ bury a rival under pressure rows — T (or Select) picks who. Last well standing wins. No Photon SDK handy? Switch Network to “Local” in the lobby and play across browser tabs on one machine.
