In
the previous version of the game every passage to a new level added a
new life to you. But you can also earn lives during the game. If during
the game you see a glowing green square then it is a life. By stepping
on that square you will earn a life. The positions of lives in the
levels are fixed, which means that if you learn their positions you
will be able step on them every time you will be playing the
appropriate level. But note that the lives are not active from the
beginning of the game, they will be activated later.
Hint:
if the life square is not active and it is green or yellow, then by
stepping on it you will lose the possibility earning it. If you know
its position try to bypass it for earning it later.
Overview
When
you first run the game the first mapping of the green, yellow, red and
cyan squares is displayed on the playing area. You start from the
bottom row and climb to the top row stepping on the green squares
adjacent to the current square. If there are no green squares, you can
step on the yellow ones, but in this case the quantity of your lives
will decrease by one. Stepping on the red and cyan squares is not
allowed.
Every
time when you step on the green or yellow square the colors of some of
the squares (green, yellow and red) on the playing area are changed,
closing and opening your way to the top. The cyan squares are
unchangeable during the whole game. The square you stepped on changes
its color to gray and is joined to your path to the top row. You can
move along the path squares freely to get adjacent green or yellow
square for the next step.
Every
passage to a new line increases your score by 15. Every green or yellow
square joined to the path decreases the score by one. When you reach
the top row the level is changed and you shall begin from the bottom
row again. Every passage to a new level adds a new life to you. The
main strategy of the game shall be the following: to reach to the top
row of the highest level stepping on as few squares as possible and
remaining alive.
You can also customize the style of the squares
from Options menu. Currently there are four styles available for the
user to choose (see the pictures above).
The more experienced you are, the higher will be your level and score.
