Play
The game is played with two players in four modes, Human vs AI, Human vs Human, Single Player, and Demonstration. In Demonstration Mode, two artificial intelligence players play against each other to show how the game is played. The controls are similar to Tetris. To play, the players must match at least four (although this number is configurable, it is default) blobs in groups (not necessarily rows), using pairs of blobs falling from the top of the field (again, similar to Tetris). These groups are eliminated from the field, and the blobs above it fall, which may make more groups (a "combo"). The game is won when the other player fills his pane to the top.

Famous quotes containing the word play:
“To save the theatre, the theatre must be destroyed, the actors and actresses must all die of the plague. They poison the air, they make art impossible. It is not drama that they play, but pieces for the theatre. We should return to the Greeks, play in the open air; the drama dies of stalls and boxes and evening dress, and people who come to digest their dinner.”
—Eleonora Duse (1859–1924)
“It is among the ranks of school-age children, those six- to twelve-year-olds who once avidly filled their free moments with childhood play, that the greatest change is evident. In the place of traditional, sometimes ancient childhood games that were still popular a generation ago, in the place of fantasy and make- believe play . . . today’s children have substituted television viewing and, most recently, video games.”
—Marie Winn (20th century)
“If you will play from a copy of a tune that is choppy,
You’ll get all my applause.”
—Irving Berlin (1888–1989)
