Basic rules

・Closures: Use stones and walls to surround treasures, coffins, and mummies, and all items inside the closure will disappear. Mummies will not disappear unless they are surrounded with treasures or coffins. The more items that disappear at once, the higher the score will be.

・Line Clears: Arrange a line made up of all treasures, all coffins, all mummies, or all stones and the entire line will disappear.

・Chains: When several closures and line clears disappear in a row, they form a chain. From two chains to large chains, the more chains there are, the more points are scored. Five or more chains will score special bonus points.

・Pyramid Stones: Place falling pyramid stones on treasures, coffins, mummies, or stones on the field and all items of the same type will disappear.
