Pokémon Puzzle Challenge
In a rising pit of colored blocks, your task is to continuously remove the bricks by swapping the positions of two bricks in the horizontal row. When three or more bricks connect in a way that goes up/down or left/right, they disappear. Gravity kicks in and causes the remaining blocks to fall into the trash can ? this can cause a chain reaction as other blocks of the same color can fall next to each other. It's up to you to constantly work the trash can to wipe out tiles through combination links and chain reactions. That's the game in a nutshell, but there are several game modes that will keep your fingers busy. For example, in the game's challenge mode you'll compete against a computer opponent and have to form combos and chain reactions to send trash blocks to his invisible screen - but don't forget that your opponent will do the same to you.
