How to play

Lines3D
The object of Lines3D is to place same colored balls in a row as more as it is possible and get points for grouping 5 or more balls until the game field is completely filled.

5 balls in a row:   5 points
6 balls in a row:  10 points
7 balls in a row:  15 points
8 balls in a row:  20 points
9 balls in a row:  25 points

When a row of five or more balls of the same color is lined up, balls will disappear from the game field and you will get the points depending on the number of balls in the row. Row can be horizontal, vertical or diagonal.
To form up a row you have to move balls one by one and put them in appropriate places. To move a ball tap on it (selected ball will be jumping up and down) and then tap on the place you want to put it. If the ball can reach chosen place, it will run to the pointed position and you will see its motion path. Balls can move along horizontal or vertical lines on the game field (diagonal movement is not allowed). After every ball's displacement, 3 new balls displayed beforehand in the right top corner of the screen will appear on the game field, except if you completed a row with the moved ball and row disappearance happened.

If your game score is more then that in the Highscores list you will be offered to add your name and the result in the Highscores.
Difficulty levels differ in the number of colors for balls used in the game.

EASY:  4 colors for balls
NORMAL:  5 colors for balls
HARD:  6 colors for balls
