How to play Columns
Stacks of three tiles fall one at a time. Move them left and right and cycle the order of the three shades as they drop. When three or more matching shades line up in a row, column, or diagonal, they vanish and everything above settles down — which can trigger chain reactions. Survive as the drops speed up.

Can I change the falling piece?
You can’t rotate it like Tetris, but you can cycle which shade sits where within the column of three.
