How to play

There are rows of matches. On your turn, take as many as you like from a single row (at least one): tap a match and it is selected together with the ones to its right, then tap Take. Then the machine takes its turn. Normally, whoever takes the last match loses; some levels reverse it (the last one wins) or set a maximum per turn — read the rule above the table. Every position can be won if you think ahead: look for moves that leave pairs.
