Gameplay

Find pairs. Build upgrades. Control the board.

The basic idea stays simple while each new row asks you to plan a little further ahead.

Scan the grid

Look for two identical cleaning items anywhere on the current board.

Choose a match

Select the matching pair you want to combine into its upgraded item.

Create room

Use smart merges to keep useful spaces available for the next pieces.

Handle new rows

As play continues, fresh items can enter the board and increase the challenge.

Merge strategy

Good placement matters

Fast matching helps, but the stronger approach is to watch where upgraded items will land and avoid trapping useful pairs. A neat board gives you more choices when the next row arrives.

Pair awarenessNotice more than one possible match before acting.
Space controlKeep flexible cells open so the board does not crowd too quickly.
Tier planningThink about which item your current merge will create next.
