This is an interesting game and with a little more help files it will be much better. The game board is filled with different size capsules and you must break a certain amount of them before your elixir [on the left] runs out to go up a level, and if you don't get the correct number of capsules before elixir runs out game is over.

However you can't break any capsule that has another one resting on it, but since they are staggered you can do it if you look fast and have a fast mouse. I have no idea how many capsules you need to change the level, and no where does it say whether you get more points for this capsule or that. Did I forget to mention that the screen keeps dropping down, so if you take too long to think the one you were thinking of has gone off the board.

So I don't know if the big ones count for 2 of the small ones, or if they all count equal. I found out by accident that if you see a large multi-colored circle and you can break that you get a bonus. This is why I was questioning. This is a puzzle which means that there is probably a best way to do it. The game runs too fast to try and see what capsules score. I also can't tell you what are the advantages of registering.

This game is easy enough for kids to play. Perhaps in the next upgrade they will expand the help files.
