Pick a number, then tap corners: it stays in your hand, so you can place it again and again until the bag runs out of it. Turn on Corner first under the gear icon to also pick a corner first, then a number, for one placement.
Rings and chips show what a move would do. Green: a cell snaps. Gold: two or more snap at once. Red: one bursts. Colour hints under the gear icon turns those colours off.
Stuck? Turn on the Hint button under the gear icon. It marks the next corner in gold and puts its number in your hand: tap the gold corner. You start with 3 hints. At 0, the button offers a refill; refills also live under the gear icon.
With Corner first on, let go of a picked corner by tapping it again or tapping open cell area.
Keys 1 to 7 pick a number, Esc puts it back, Z undoes, H asks for a hint.
