Basics
1. How to enter the stage
Click on the stage door to play the game.
2. How to connect monsters
Basically, there are two ways of connecting monsters: 1. Click on the first monster, click off then draw a line over the monsters of the same color and click on the last monster to link them all. You can connect monsters by moving your mouse up, down, left, right and diagonally. The connected monsters will burst and add some points to your score. 2. You can also click on a monster, hold onto it, move your mouse to the next monster of the same color to connect them and click off only at the point when you reach the last monster.
3. How to make specials by connecting monsters
You need to connect five or more same-color monsters to make specials. Horizontal, Vertical and Cross Bombs, Round Bombs and Magic Hammer are called “specials”, and they make a powerful effect when matched. You can get different types of bombs depending on the number of monsters you connect and the way of connection. See Monsters page for details.
4. How to clear the stage
Every stage has its own mission to complete, and you need to accomplish the mission to clear the stage. Please refer to the Mission page for details.
5. How to move up to the next floor
Clear ALL Stages on the same floor (not necessarily in numerical order) to go up to the next floor. If you don't clear any of the stages, the ladder will stay incomplete, so if there are stages 14, 15 and 16 on the same floor, you need to clear all of them and only then the full ladder to the upper floor will appear.
6. How to play Hero Challenge
Hero Challenge is a special stage you can meet with after clearing specific stages with 3 stars. Look for the doors with crown symbols on (refer to image 1), clear those stages with 3 stars like shown in the image #2, then you'll be able to play Hero Challenge and you will see a golden crown symbol on the door (image 3) once you clear it. Earn hero crowns, extra game coins, and get higher score by completing Hero Challenges! You will also be able to unlock new cool Hero avatars after you collect a certain number of hero crowns!
7. How to defeat the Boss
Find the Boss behind the big doors in the Monster Tower! He got a new home with colored edges and to attack him, you need to connect at least 3 monsters to the same-color edge of the Boss’s home, then the Boss will slowly lose his life. See Missions page for details.
8. How to unlock the next episode
Each episode consists of a different concept of challenges, new blockers will be introduced in every episode on your way to the top of the Monster Tower. When you clear the final stage of the episode, the locked episode ladder will appear. Three golden keys are needed to unlock this ladder, and there are 3 ways to earn golden keys: 1. One key will be given every 6 hours. A total of 18 hours is needed for all three keys. 2. Buy keys at the shop either with 4,000 game coins or $0.99 cash. 3. Ask friends to send keys.
