Source facts
What is the primary objective when placing runes on the board?
To score points or capture cells, you must build stacks of three similar runes. You can maximize your score by strategically choosing board cells that offer multipliers to increase your total points during the round.
How should I approach using defensive runes during a match?
You can use square defense runes to block incoming attacks from opponents. However, be aware that these defenses are ineffective if your opponent uses the unstoppable Beast rune, which can bypass your defensive efforts entirely.
What is the difference between the available game modes?
The game features four distinct modes: Crescendo focuses on capturing a target number of cells, Points emphasizes high scores, Coins involves collecting currency on the board, and Strategy requires completing a secret shape on the board.
