[edit] Gameplay

Colorful balls are stacked on the right, and pushed into the horizontal pipe one by one.

The player rotates pipe-connected disks, each of which has four holes for the balls. Once a ball gets into a hole, it can sometimes be pushed out with a click. There is more to the pipes, too.

The goal is to get rid of a certain amount of the balls by filling a disc with four balls of the same color, so they disappear.
