The object is to form same-colored squares.
When a colored square is formed, it will then be

eliminated by the advancing Time Line. The Time Line

moves from left to right, relentlessly. When the Time Line

passes the colored square you have created, it eliminates

that square and points will be added to your score.
The more squares you manage to eliminate at once, the

higher you will score.
When the falling blocks reach the top of the screen, it’s

game over.

Special Blocks

Sometimes special blocks appear in the game. When

you form a colored square using these special blocks,

a chain reaction is set off: all blocks that are the same

color as the colored square containing the special

block and are connected to that square – are cleared

from the screen.

Lumines™ II, like its phenomenally popular predecessor,

is the inspired, intoxicating and addictive fusion of

block- rocking beats and block-dropping puzzle strategy.

Like any great game, it is simple to grasp, but may take

a lifetime to master. 2x2 blocks drop from the top of the

screen and you must move and rotate them to create

same-color blocks, erasing as many of them as you can in

the process. Sounds easy? you must also contend with the

moving Time Line which relentlessly crashes your block

party, forcing you to make ever more desperate moves if

you want to beat that high score.
