4 player classic Lines game. Need 1 or 4 players stand on spots to play.
Dont know how to play? Read rules below.
Derivable - feel free to make your own furnitures. Have a fun! =)

FEATURES:
* full synchronization with up to 4 or even more players
* multiplayer management system (players can join and leave while game is already playing)
* drag and drop (freely move around the screen - hold mouse button on title)
* comfortable playing in room, with mouse and without closing text chat
* flexible level challenge (difficulty is auto adjusted to player skill)

GAME RULES - SHORT:
Click on gem to select it and click on empty field to move. 
Match minimum 5 gems with same color in horizontal or vertical line. 
Grey and black gems are universal and can match anything. 
Black gem can explode all gems of matched color on the board. 
Match more than 5 gems to get extra bonus moves. 
Make two matches, one by one, to get extra grey or black gem. 
Play with up to 4 players.

GAME RULES - BASIC:
At first look, games may look similar to bejeweled or walk off, but rules are totally different.
You can click on gem to select it and then click on empty field to move it there.
You can move gems to any empty fields.
You cant swap gems.
Main basic rule is to move gems to match minimum of 5 same colors in horizontal or vertical lines.
If you cant match gems, then just move them.
Each move without match brings 3 new games to the board.

GAME RULES - MORE:
There are 6 gem colors and 2 special gems - grey and black.
Both special gems can be matched with any color.
When Black gem is matched with color gems, then it will explode every gem with this color on the board (you dont get points for exploded gems outside matching).
If you match 5 or more gems of same color, then you will get BONUS moves.
BONUS moves give you special moves after each no new gems will appear on the board (normally you get 3 when there is no match after move).
5 matched gems give you +1 BONUS move, 6 give you +2 BONUS moves, and so on.
If you make two matches, one by one, then you have 100% chance to receive new extra grey or black gem (normally you have 10% chance in every not matched move, and it appears as forth gem).
If there will be no more free space on board, then game will complete with exploding all gems and winner will have the highest score.
New game with cleared scores will begin within 10 seconds.

GAME RULES - SKILL LEVEL CHALLENGE:
Depending on your moves, game may go to a little higher level of difficulty.
Game might be easy for longer time for beginners and a little harder for skilled players more quickly.
Difficulty level is visible on right side as LEVEL.
In practice, maximum level 5 might be noticed as a challenge after making some moves.
Beginning may look easy for skilled players, but every next move on level 5 is starting to be more important than before, so think 3 steps forward.
To get higher level fast, just show that you know how to use grey and black gems, and dont miss matching combos like more colors than 5 and matching one by one. 

GAME RULES - MULTIPLAYER:
You can play alone or with up to 4 players.
Players can left and new players can join while you are already playing.
If there are 2 or more players, then game begins to be turn based.
On right side is a table with all current players and their scores.
Player with a star before his name is a player who has current turn.
When your turn begins, then you will see star near your name and hear special sound.
Each player has 5 moves in his turn which can be expanded with BONUS moves (matched gems).
Number of available moves is visible on right side as MOVES, and number of extra moves is visible as BONUS.
Each player has 16 seconds for his moves, and after this time his turn is lost.
Current time status is visible on right side as TIMER (starts decreasing from 10, after 4 seconds).
If you know game rules and play it for a moment, then you can be much faster than timer in almost every turn and dont let other 3 players waiting too long.
If player left the game and there is his turn, then there is 30 second timeout, so if he will not back, then next player will get turn.
If there is a problem with getting a turn from previous player, then click on gems until you get your turn (only if current turn player left or turns are not moving to another player).
If player with current turn really cant move, then he should click on X (above title) to close game, and back to game after more than 30 seconds.
If there are still problems with rurns, then all players should leave a game (it should not happen, but who knows).
It is possible to play with more than 4 players when you put more copies of the game in the room, but some of players will not be visible on table and waiting for turn with as many players would take too long (but it is possible if you really need).

IF YOU HAVE ANY PROBLEMS OR QUESTIONS, JUST SEND ME A MESSAGE.
IN MOST CASES, REPLY IS WITHIN 24 HOURS.
