Match'em Game For S60 5th Edition
A Little Something To Make You Scratch Your Head!
 SameGame is a classic puzzle game featuring tile removal originally released under the name Chain Shot! in 1985 by Kuniaki Moribe (Morisuke).
It has since been ported to numerous computer platforms and thanks to the Moubail’s Markus Meriluoto the game has come to S60 5th Edition devices!
Classic Same Game is played on a rectangular field initially filled with typically 4 or 5 kinds of blocks placed at random. By selecting one of a group of adjoining blocks of the same color, a player may remove them from the screen by clicking them.
Blocks that are no longer supported by removed blocks will fall down, and a column without any blocks will be trimmed away by other columns always sliding to one side to the left.
Match’em is based on the same idea but there have been some modifications to make it more compatible with a touchscreen. Touching the symbols selects them as a group to be removed. Only groups of two or more can be selected.
The goal is to remove as many symbols as possible and in as large groups as possible to maximize the score. So basically all you need to do is to click on a symbol that has at least one similar symbol adjacent to it. The first click selects the group and the second removes it.
After selecting a group you have four seconds to change your mind and select a different group before the group is automatically removed. It indeed sounds quite simple but game is anyway very addictive and it this may leave you scratching your head for hours or even days!
You should be careful in planning and you’ll be able to create bigger groups and achieve a much higher score. There are no time limit during the game and it is over when no more grouped bubbles are available.
GOOD LUCK and HAVE FUN!
