<para>The aim of the game is to achieve the highest score possible by

moving the falling tiles in such a way that tiles of the same color are

|
|
|
|
adjacent, and disappear. The more tiles you remove, the higher your

score.</para>

|
|
<keycap>Up</keycap> arrow and <keycap>Return</keycap> keys to rotate the
|
|
|
|
|
tile left and right respectively. The <keycap>Shift</keycap> key drops
|
|

the tile down one line, and the <keycap>Down</keycap> key drops the tile
|

they disappear, and any pieces above them fall down according to the law

of gravity ;-). If this causes four or more pieces to become
