How to play

Desktop and mobile controls.

Same cube on every device - the gestures and shortcuts change with your pointer.

Desktop

Left-drag aims on the sticky depth plane (cell box only - no ghost ball). Orbit with a trackpad two-finger scroll or right-drag, then place with Space - shortcuts appear on chrome buttons.

  • Left-drag Aim on the sticky depth plane (click also moves aim)
  • 2-finger scroll Orbit on a trackpad (no click needed)
  • Right-drag Orbit with a mouse
  • Pinch / middle-drag Zoom the board
  • Shift + scroll Change depth toward or away from the camera
  • Q / E Change depth ([ and ] work too)
  • WASD / arrows Nudge the cursor cell
  • Space / Enter Place, Drop, or confirm a power-up
  • Tab Cycle Clear-row axis while aiming Clear
  • Esc Cancel a power-up, or return to menu
  • R Rematch after a local win or draw

  • 2 fingers Orbit and pinch-zoom the board
  • 3 fingers Swipe up / down to change depth (up = deeper)
