Details
You win if you manage to place marbles on all the target positions.
There are more marbles than target positions. The target positions are marked by a blue dot.
In the default variant these are the four positions to the North, South, East and West of the center.
The other variants ("challenges") have other targets, a different number of given marbles, or different walls.
You win when each blue target position contains a marble.
Controls
"challenge"
You can select between 26 randomized setups. An empty board without marbles will appear.
Click the board anywhere to let the system randomly drop a certain number of marbles.
"<",">" setter bar
Click to select the previous or next challenge.
"reset"
"reset" takes you back to the scrambled starting position.
If you would like to see a differently randomized setup for this challenge, select a different challenge and then select the desired challenge again (use "<", then ">").
