BALLS IN A LINE

A similar implementation of Lines is already available in our topic section, however, we have placed this version of Lines as one of the most successful. Instead of balls, there are stamped chips with indentations on the field, however, they are just as round as the traditional balls for this game. Despite the simplicity of the rules, let's take a closer look at this version of the game.

The player adjusts the size of the field independently based on their experience. Note that the complexity depends on the size only conditionally. The smaller the cells, the shorter the chain of logical reasoning, but the greater the chance of accidentally blocking the passage for the ball. The larger the field, on the contrary, the longer chains of reasoning and planning combinations can be conducted. Sizes are available in these Lines :

• 4x4 (16 cells) - Novice
• 6x6 (36 cells) - Expert
• 8x8 (64 cells) - Guru (Master)

Live mode (Live). If you have mastered the game like the back of your hand and can collect balls in a line with your eyes closed, then a special Live option is provided for you. This mode enables is responsible for putting new balls on the field. Without a check mark, balls are added only after a move that has not been followed by clearing a single line. And with the live mode enabled, the balls fall out according to a schedule, and the interval in this schedule is extremely small. In other words, if you want dynamics and do not plan to be distracted, if you need a shake-up or your brain requires activity, then this check mark is for you!

About lines. What is a line? These are consecutive balls of the same color placed in adjacent cells. Lines can be vertical (in field columns), horizontal (in rows), or diagonal. For each field size, there are restrictions on the minimum number of balls in a line: 4x4 - 3 balls, 6x6 - 4, 8x8-5.

In conclusion, you can warn the settled players. You can play Lines for hours — the game is addictive, so if you are at work and decided to pass the break, often look at the clock — time flies by unnoticed!
