The purpose of this game is to shoot colored orbs into your playfield, so they form groups of three or more. You win if you manage to remove all orbs. You lose if any orb attaches below the white line.

You can make the job harder for your opponent by making orbs fall down as a side-effect of you forming a group. For example, on the screenshot shown on the top of this page, the player on the left playfield can fire a white orb onto the three white orbs in the top left of his field, and cause the six orbs below to reapper on his opponent's playfield.
