What changed in this build

This build supports both endless and a five-level target mode. Level goals climb from 500 to 2500 while moves shrink from 30 to 24, ice and stone obstacles begin blocking routes, and the board now teaches explicit special rules: 4 in a row creates a bomb, 5 creates lightning, and L or T clears create rainbow pieces.

• Level mode is not just about clearing pieces; it is about reaching the target score before the move counter runs out. Chains matter because each follow-up cascade adds another 0.5 to the multiplier, up to x5.
• Special creation is deterministic, not random. Four in a line creates a bomb, five creates lightning, and intersecting L or T runs create a rainbow clear, which makes board planning much stronger than casual swiping.

• Use the center of the board to build cascades, then spend specials where ice or stone are blocking your next real lane of play. Good turns solve the obstacle and the score target at the same time.
• Hold the single shuffle charge for dead positions or ugly late boards. Spending it on a merely average position usually wastes your best rescue tool.
