Board notes 5 details
- Layout
- Six left stacks and six right stacks flank a tall rounded road; the right middle carries two blue crystal `2` counters while black covers hide deeper cyan, red, green, and purple rows.
- Goal
- Clear exposed cyan and pink, pair left green/red with their receivers, then lower both crystal gates before finishing the compact yellow, purple, and orange groups.
- Opening
- Release upper cyan, then pink and green, waiting for each pair to enter before adding red.
- Danger Zone
- Opening a crystal tray while long left red and blue rows circulate can strand its revealed cars without a receiver.
- Mechanics
- Two decrementing crystal gates divide a sixteen-space hidden-queue board into early and late releases.
