How to Play

1

Find Matching Pairs

Look for two identical animal tiles on the grid. They must be matching icons to be eligible for removal.

2

Check the Connection

You can only link tiles if the path between them has no more than two turns (3 straight line segments) and is not blocked by other tiles.

3

Beat the Clock

Empty the entire board before the time bar at the top runs out. Faster matching earns you higher bonus scores!

Mastery Strategy

Outside-In Approach

Focus on clearing tiles around the edges first. This opens up internal paths, making it much easier to connect tiles trapped in the center.

Identify Neighboring Pairs

The easiest matches are identical tiles sitting directly next to each other. Clear these immediately to reduce visual clutter.

Use the "Shuffle" Wisely

If you truly get stuck, use the shuffle or hint tools. However, try to save them for the very end when the board is nearly empty and matches are harder to see.

Common Questions

What is the "3-line rule"?
It means the imaginary line connecting two animals can only bend a maximum of two times. If it needs a third turn to reach the match, it's an invalid move.


Do the tiles move after a match?
In some levels, tiles may shift up, down, or sideways to fill the empty space, constantly changing the available connection paths!
