Features
Clearing Lines
Find below the screen shots of clearing lines
The green block in the middle is falling to create a line.
It lands; the red block is falling after it.
A single line is cleared.
All blocks above the cleared line fall by the height of the cleared line. The blocks fall down by not only one space, but depend on the height of the cleared line (single / double / triple / quadruple) as shown in the screen shot below.
The orange block was to fall only by one space so it is now resting in air; it will not fall any further, unless lines are cleared below it. This is correct functionality. The red block has continued to fall and a new green block is falling after it.
Type of Wins:
- Line win for single uninterrupted horizontal line.
- Line win for double uninterrupted horizontal line (2 consecutive rows one after the other)
- Line win for triple uninterrupted horizontal line (3 consecutive rows one after the other)
- Line win for quadruple uninterrupted horizontal line (4 consecutive rows one after the other)
- Magic Block Free Plays– 10 free plays are awarded for one or more lines formed using a Magic Block.

- On completion of the Auto Play, it will resume back to playing as normal.
- The number of games field will be enabled depending on the available game balance.
- If the player gets a win while in Auto Play, winnings are automatically collected.
- During Auto Play, when Free Plays feature is triggered, Auto Play will reset.
- Auto Play can be stopped by clicking on 'Stop Auto Play' button on AUTO PLAY ACTIVE pop-up which appears after every game.
