Gameplay tips:

  • Fingernails don't work on the touch screen. Try holding your pinching hand at an angle that allows you to use the sides of your fingertips to maximize contact with your skin.
  • Don't panic. If you're having trouble consistently combining squirms, try slowing down and using fluid and deliberate motions. Quickly mashing the screen will only stir things up and waste precious seconds.
  • Play strategically. Allow one color to multiply until the maximum capacity is reached, then quickly pop those squirms to achieve max chain and score big bonus points!

Use your powerups wisely...

  • Wait until the screen is full of squirms before activating powerups to maximize their effects.
  • Nukes don't propagate your color chain after the initial pop. It's best to reserve these for emergencies if you want to maximize your score.
  • Combining Toxin or Mutagen powerups with Multicolor squirms can result in some useful and interesting side effects!
