What is the goal?

Move the blocks through the board so matching destinations can be reached and the level clears. The exact route depends on the starting layout and obstacle state, so matching by color alone is not enough.

What should beginners do first?

Scan destinations, shared lanes, and blockers. Choose a move that opens a constrained route or creates safe room while keeping other colors reachable.

What should you do after a mistake?

Undo a recent first mismatch when possible. Restart when several dependent moves have compounded, and record the missed dependency before trying again.
