The challenge in front of you

From the start of a round
- Select two pieces to swap.

Using the playing area
Tap two tiles; desktop drag-and-drop is also available. On a smaller screen, keep the active part of the board within view. Avoid pressing the same control repeatedly while a move is being processed.
Put the rules into context
The horizon should continue across neighbouring tiles. Compare this with the rule that governs the move. Keep the game’s format in mind.
