How to Play

1. The goal

• Each floor has a glowing Light Gate on its edge.
• Slide the stones until there is a clear path from your robot to the gate.
• As soon as the path opens, your robot walks out on its own and the floor is relit.

2. Sliding stones

• Drag a stone along its length, then let go where you want it to stop.
• Stones can't pass through other stones or your robot.
• Your robot never moves until the path is clear - you only move the stones.
• Each slide is one move, no matter how far the stone travels.

4. Moves and stars

• Every floor has a best solution. Match it to earn 3 stars.
• Finish within a few extra moves for 2 stars; any finish earns at least 1.
• The counter at the top shows the moves you have left. Run out and you can add 5 moves or try the floor again.
• Using any booster on a floor limits that floor to 2 stars.

5. Boosters

Hint

Lights up the next best move.

Undo

Takes back your last move.

Lift

Raises one stone off the floor for the rest of the attempt.

+5 Moves

Gives you five more moves.

• You get your first boosters after floor 3.
• Out of a booster? Watch a short ad to get one.

6. Landings

• Every 10th floor is a Landing - a tougher floor with fewer spare moves.
• Clearing a Landing earns double Gears and lights up the next part of the Spire.

7. The Spire grows

• Every 25 floors, the floor gains another row, up to 8 rows.
• Bigger floors hold more stones, so plan a few moves ahead.

8. Seeing the floor

• Tap Angled or Top-down to change the view.
• Tap the arrow buttons to turn the floor a quarter turn, or drag the floor with two fingers to spin it.

9. Gears

• Earn Gears the first time you clear each floor - more stars, more Gears.
• Spend Gears on Atlantean gear for your robot.

10. Friends and Spire Races

• Invite friends with your invite link or connect Facebook to find friends who play.
• With 5 active friends you unlock Spire Races: 3 to 5 friends climb the same floors at the same time. Boosters are off, so it's pure skill.
