ColorFall Shanghai Instructions
In ColorFall Shanghai every tile must be removed every round. So to not make the game impossible,
when a column is emptied the remaining columns shift left and also some wild card pieces are included in the game.
At the start of every round in ColorFall Shanghai, the board is filled with colored tiles.
Points are earned by removing 2 or more connected tiles of the same color at a time. Wild card pieces can be used as any color.
To remove tiles, click on one and while holding down the mouse button select other connected tiles of the same color.
Selected tiles are highlighted in yellow. When you let go of the mouse button, the selected tiles are removed and the tiles above the removed ones drop.
If the last tile in a column is removed, all columns to the right are shifted to the left.
If you do not want to remove the selected tiles, move the mouse off the game board before letting go of the mouse button.
The 7 different color tiles are worth different points: 10, 20, 30, ... 70.
The different tiles are shown in order on the right side of the game board.
A multiplier is awarded for removing more than 2 tiles at a time. Removing many tiles at once will award high scores.
The first round starts with 3 different color tiles.
Every round, a new color is added until there are 7 different tiles.
In this version of ColorFall, you must remove every tile from the board every round.
The game is over when you do not remove enough tiles to progress to the next round.
Strategy: In this version you will not make it as many rounds as the other ColorFall games.
The trick is to make as many points as possible in the early rounds.
In round 1, remove as many of the 10 point purple and 20 point yellow tiles as you can so that you can
remove every 30 point red tile at once. In round 2, try to do the same with the 40 point green tiles.
Just make sure that you leave around a couple tiles of each color so that you can use the to remove those tiles you couldn't get to earlier in the round.
Before removing any tile, determine if you should remove any of the tiles above it first.
Sometimes, two connect tiles can be removed, but after tiles below it are removed, those tiles are no longer connected.
Also, try to determine how many wild card pieces you will need in the end. If you can, use the wild cards when
removing many pieces at once as long as you can still finish the level.
