This is classic color lines puzzle game where you need to stay in game as long as you can and get points. Each turn your field will be added with 3 more balls of random color and you can move any ball on the field to any empty cell if the path exists. Turn ends if you moved the ball and didn't score, otherwise you can move one more ball and so on until you unable to score. To score you have to collect 5 or more balls of the same color in a row (vertically, horizontally or diagonally).

Controls
- Touch the ball which you want to move, it will start jumping on place indicating that you have selected it.
- Touch empty cell to move selected ball to desired cell or touch another ball to change selection.
If you accidentally missed the cell and the turn is over, you can open main menu by "Menu" or "Back" button and choose "Undo" to revert game state back.

Hints
- You gain more points if you score more balls, so always try to score more than only 5 balls.
- Small balls shows you where and what color the next balls will be, so you can plan your moves better.

Features
- Nice graphics, ball movement animation.
- Looks good on tablets with high screen resolution, while application size is only 1.5 MB.
- Doesn't requires Internet connection, no ads, completely free.
- Function "Undo" which allows to rollback game state for one turn.
- Local High scores and Online leader board using Scoreloop.

Version 1.1

+ Added ability to do moves faster. Now while the ball is moving to destination cell, you already can select next ball which you want to move and actually start move it too. The previous moving ball will be placed to destination cell immediately. If your new ball hasn't affected by previous move (didn't scored and disappeared) your new ball will begin to move with no problems, otherwise you will need to select another ball.
+ Improved graphic look of texts "Score" and "Highest Score": now they are separate from the background, rendered same good as score numbers on high-resolution devices.
+ Added localizations for French, Italian, Spanish, German, Russian and Ukrainian languages.
+ Added "first run" dialog which shows latest changes.
Version 1.2

+ Integrated Scoreloop, an online scoring service.
+ Now you get additional points for scoring two or more times in a row. You get +5 points for second score, +10 points for third and so on.
