Color Lines
Move balls into lines of five to clear them — every move that doesn’t clear adds three new balls.
About the game
Color Lines is a classic five-in-a-row puzzle on a 9×9 board: move balls to complete lines of five. Every move without a clear adds three more balls, so plan ahead.
How to play
- A selected ball can move only along an open up/down/left/right path.
- Five or more of a color in a row, column or diagonal clear; longer lines score more.
- If a move clears nothing, 3 new balls appear (colors previewed at the top).
- The game ends when the board is full.
Controls
Tap a ball to select it, then tap an empty square; it travels along an open path.
Tips for a high score
- Build two or three near-complete lines at once.
- Use the previewed colors to help finish lines.
- Keep paths open so balls don’t get trapped.
