How to play Sweet Swap

Swap two sweets that sit next to each other, side by side or one above the other, so that three or more of the same kind line up. They pop, the sweets above drop down, and new ones fall in from the top. If the swap would not make a line, the sweets swap back and you keep your move.

Each level shows what to collect at the top of the screen, and how many moves you have. Collect them all before the moves run out to win. Any moves you have left are turned into bonus points, and your score decides whether you earn one, two or three stars.

Controls

Drag a sweet towards the one you want to swap it with, or tap one sweet and then its neighbour. On a computer you can also use the arrow keys to move the cursor and Space to pick a sweet. If you get stuck, wait a few seconds and two sweets will wiggle to show a possible move.

Special sweets

Make it by	You get	What it does
Four in a row	Striped sweet	Clears its whole row or column when it pops (follow the stripes).
An L or T shape	Wrapped bomb	Blows up the 3 by 3 square around it.
Five in a row	Rainbow drop	Swap it with any sweet to clear every sweet of that kind on the board.

Swap two special sweets with each other for an even bigger effect: two striped sweets clear a cross, a striped sweet and a bomb clear three rows and three columns, and two bombs clear a 5 by 5 square. A rainbow drop swapped with a striped sweet or a bomb turns every sweet of that colour into one and sets them all off.

Tips

Make matches near the bottom of the board. Falling sweets often line up on their own for free combos.
Look for chances to make a special sweet before taking a plain match of three.
Save rainbow drops for the colour you still need to collect.
Combos score more: every chain reaction raises the points for each sweet.
