How To Play
Matches of 3
To make a match of 3, click on a stone and then drag it so it makes a match of three stones of the same shape and color. Once matched, the stones will disappear and new ones will fall from the top to fill in the gaps.
Matches of 4 or More
To make a match of 4 or more, click on a stone and then drag it so it makes a match of four or more stones of the same shape and color. Once matched, the stones will disappear and new ones will fall from the top to fill in the gaps. As an added bonus, all matches of 4 or more will earn you a bomb.
Bombs
Bombs are earned by making matches of 4 or more. Each bomb type has a unique power. Use bombs to remove multiple stones at the same time or locked tiles.
Bomb Types
Color Bomb Removes all stones of one color. |
Cross Bomb Removes all stones directly above, below, left and right of it. |
Dynamite Removes a large diamond pattern of stones around the bomb. |
Grenade Removes all adjacent stones around the bomb. |
Nuke Removes all stones on the board. |
X Bomb Removes all stones diagonal of it. |
Glowing Stones
Complete matches that include a glowing stone to earn special bonuses. These bonuses are randomly awarded and include free Playteau Cash, free collection items and bombs.
Gold Cells
Complete matches in gold cells to earn free Playteau Cash.
Locked Tiles
Represented by a chain on top of a stone, locked tiles prevent the stones under them from being moved or removed. A single locked tile requires two matches to flip, while a double locked tile requires three matches to flip. Locks on tiles can also be removed by using bombs.
Karma Meter
The karma meter will automatically zap stones and turn white tiles black. Quick play through making matches will fill the karma meter, which when full will begin to work by zapping stones. To maintain the karma meter, you must continue to make quick matches.
You can find the karma meter above the game board. Its meter fills from the outside to the inside of it.
Timer
The timer counts down the time remaining to complete the level or game.
You can find the timer at the bottom of the game board. The meter counts down from right to left.
Clearing the Board/ Level Completion
A board is cleared or level completed by flipping all of the white tiles over to black. To flip a tile, make a match over it.
Frenzy
In frenzy play, a board is cleared when all white tiles are turned over to black.
Strategy
In strategy play, a level is completed when all white tiles are turned over to black.
Gameplay
There are two gameplay types in Fortune Stones. The first is a great spin on the classic match 3 game, while the second involves the completion of fantastic puzzle level sets.
Frenzy
In frenzy play, the goal is to earn as many points as possible before time runs out. Clearing all of the white tiles earns you a 15 second time bonus and score multiplier (x2, x3, etc), and then resets the board so you can keep playing. The more times you clear the board, the more time bonuses and points you get.
Strategy
In strategy play, the goal is to “solve” each level by clearing all of the white tiles. Once you do, the level is complete, and you can move on to play the next level.
You must play one game of frenzy to unlock strategy gameplay.
