Lines (video game)
Lines (aka ColorLines) is a computer puzzle game, invented by Oleg Demin and first introduced as a video game by the Russian company Gamos in 1992.
Game rules
The game field is a square 9×9, where balls in different colors appear frequently. The goal is to clean maximum numbers of lines of arranged balls of same color (five or more). Player can move every ball, if there is a path (linked set of vertical and horizontal empty cells) between the current position of the ball and the desired destination. When a line of five or more balls in same color is arranged (horizontal, vertical or diagonal) it disappears.
Remakes
KLines, or Kolor Lines, is a KDE Color Lines remake. The game starts with a 9×9 board filled with three balls chosen out of seven different colours. The player can move one ball per turn, and his goal his to remove ball by forming lines of at least five balls of the same colour. If he does, he gains one turn, i.e. he can move another ball. If not, three new balls are added, and the game continues until the board is full.
