Color Lines, aka Balls, is one of the most popular computer games in offices and beyond. Simple and entertaining at the same time, the game captivates in such a way that time really flies by! And yet every failure in the game only encourages you to start again and again.
Instructions
Step 1
The Color Lines rules are very simple. In the most common version on the playing field, you need to build lines of balls of the same color vertically, horizontally or diagonally. The line of five or more balls disappears, freeing up the field and adding points to you. In this case, after each move, the computer throws three more balls onto the field - in addition to the move when you have built a full line.
Step 2
In some versions of the game, the computer shows where the new balls will appear and what color they will be, in other versions they will not, or these parameters are set by the settings. There are also versions in which the balls do not appear after each move, but in time, with a certain frequency. There are "Balls" where you have to build not lines, but squares of four balls of the same color, but otherwise the principle of the game is the same.
Step 3
Alas, it is impossible to win a complete and unconditional victory in the "Balls": sooner or later your playing field will still fill up with balls. But there are a few simple tricks that will allow you to score a large number of points and, if you're lucky, take the top line in the table of records: 1. Try not to line up lines in an arbitrary place - start drawing a line where the computer has already thrown two, and preferably more than two balls of a certain color in a row. 2. If you started to line up the balls, and the computer stubbornly puts obstacles for you with balls of a different color, most often it is wiser not to go against the car, but switch to building a different line. If you start to line up a line of a certain color, and then notice that the computer throws balls of the same color in another line, it is better to continue where the machine does. 4. During the game, especially if it lasts 10 minutes or more, it is useful to distract yourself a little and look away from the screen. A "fresh" look almost always allows you to see a successful combination in the variegated color of the balls. And, most importantly, if you are "overwhelmed" - do not be discouraged! The good thing about "balls" is that it is so easy to start all over again with them.
