Match Three: from controls to your first round

Open Match Three, check the instructions and begin a round. Score 900 points in twenty-five moves. Check the relevant rule before repeating a move. Begin with the solo mode shown on the page. Use the example below to understand a decision.

8×8 board, move budget, cascades and no-legal-move handling.

Practice beyond the first move

Compare the worked example with your own position. Use the reasoning, not an answer copied from a different board. Notice the feedback after each input.

Your goal

Score 900 points in twenty-five moves. An attractive position is not enough unless the goal is met. Start with a deliberate move.

The playing sequence

  1. Swap adjacent pieces to make a line of three or more.
  2. Matched pieces disappear.
  3. Falling pieces can trigger cascades.
  4. Reach the target before running out of moves.

How your actions work

Tap adjacent cells. A careful first action helps you become familiar with the layout. Contact us with the game and device if a control does not respond.

Try this example

A horizontal swap can complete a vertical line. Compare this with the rule that governs the move. Keep the game’s format in mind.

A useful caution

A swap making no match is reverted. A different version of the game may use a different rule. Read one step at a time and try it on the playing area. Match the instruction to the control you use.
