The AIM OF THE GAME is very simple:

All gemstones must be placed inside the box.
No gemstone may overlap with another.

Gems can only be moved left and right.
(In portrait format only up and down.)

Gems of the same color are connected to each other by a mystical force and always move synchronously.

Optionally, the player can try to solve the task using time measurement. Simply clicking on the timer turns the clock on and off.

Double-clicking on a gemstone will lock it in its current position inside the box, as will all other gems of the same color.
Pinned gems will appear yellow in the box, if the position is correct.
If the position does not correspond to the solution, the player receives a time penalty when playing against the clock.

The box in which the gemstones are to be placed is 4x4 squares in level 1 and 7x7 squares in level 9.

The positions of some gems may be given (yellow jewels) at the start of the game.

Every task has exactly one solution. No task has no solution and no task has more than one solution.

The tasks at the easiest level of difficulty can be solved quickly in just a few moves, while the tasks at higher levels require a fair amount of thought and tactical skill.

The nine difficulty levels are designed so that even primary school-aged players can solve the easier levels.
The higher levels particularly challenge adults' logical skills!
