The large square in the centre is the playing screen where you drop the
blocks. The block at the bottom has already been dropped and the block at the
top is the one you have control of that is about to drop. On the right we
have level which displays your current level. Time which shows how much time
has passed. Score and Hi-Score show your current and best scores respectively
while Deleted tells you how many blocks total you have deleted so far. At the
upper left we have three blocks that show what's coming for your next three
blocks, starting with the top as the next block at the bottom one you will get
in three drops. The face or icon at the bottom left corner is the character
icon you selected at the beginning of the game. That's it for the screen.

|_ ----o----\ Block Elimination |
(000C2) \---------------------------------------------------------------o
Here are the gameplay basics. The idea of Lumines works as follows. Given a
not-too-distant-relative of Tetris like grid and block dropping system your
goal is to create blocks of four squares of either colour to eliminate the
blocks. If this isn't too helpful I'll provide a basic diagram:
o-------------------------------------------------------o

o---------------o---+---o-------------------------------o
Above is a model of the screen drawn to scale. As you can see a block with
two coloured squares on the bottom is descending down toward a block with two
coloured squares on the top. When the block lands it will create this.

o---------------o---+---o-------------------------------o
You can see that now a square of four coloured blocks has formed together.
When the sweep comes by (which we will talk about more later) this block of
four squares will disappear giving you points, and reducing the amount of
blocks on the field. After the sweep has gone by it looks like this:
o-------------------------------------------------------o
| |

| +---+---+ |
| | | | |
o---------------o---+---o-------------------------------o
The bottom two squares of the lower block and the top two squares of the upper
block are now on top of one another since the complete square in the middle
has disappeared. You can get more than one block at once and all sorts of
special combos as well, but we'll get into that later. You've got the basics.
| umines /----------------------------------------------------------------o
|_ ----o----\ The Sweep |
(000C3) \---------------------------------------------------------------o
You may have noticed the object that sweeps by every few seconds, well that
thing is responsible for clearing the blocks meaning the blocks you create
don't disappear immediately, instead they disappear when the sweep clears
them. This means you are given the chance to potentially build bigger combos
on top of your blocks waiting to be cleared. In case you haven't figured it
out yet the sweep looks something like this:
o---o\

| |&&&| | | |
o---------------o---+---o-------------------------------o
When the vertical line that descends down the screen passes over a complete
block the block then disappears. The number at the top of the sweep keeps
track of how many blocks have been cleared on each sweep and if it reaches
four or higher then you get a special bonus, what a nice surprise.
| umines /----------------------------------------------------------------o
|_ ----o----\ Special Block |
(000C4) \---------------------------------------------------------------o
The special block is the little icon that appears in the centre of some
blocks, for example in the first level you will be able to tell it apart
because on rare occasions a small green dot appears in some blocks. What this
green dot does is not only desttroy like-coloured blocks in a square pattern
like any other would, but it also moves and destroys every single block beside
it of the same colour on and on until it reaches a block a block of a
different colour. It will snake up down, left or right but not diagonally.

o---------------o---+---o---+---o---+---o---+---o-------o
Lets say that the clear block with the "x" in the middle represents one of the
special destroyer blocks. You can see that the block is entirely white so it
is about to be destroyed, it will destroy the three squares in the same block
but then it will chain outward. Every square with a number inside of it will
be destroyed and after this huge chain you will be left with:

Something that looks like the above picture. Of course tat block of coloured
squares at the lower left will be removed too on the next sweep but that's
beside the point. The idea is that you can eliminate tons of blocks of a
single colour using this special block and after doing so there will likely be
so many blocks of the opposite colour remaining that even they will almost
completely wipe themselves out on the next sweep. A powerful tool indeed.
O============================================================================O
| Block Tactics (000D0) |
O============================================================================O
This section will pretty much outline everything you are going to want to know
to build up the highest scores and become the most efficient player.
Obviously everyone plays differently and I'm sure you've even got some of your
own special tactics that I might overlook, but my primary goal is to help give
you a few extra pointers to maximize your score and minimize game overs.
| umines /----------------------------------------------------------------o
|_ ----o----\ The Checkered Block |
(000D1) \---------------------------------------------------------------o
You might want to know how to deal with that awful block that comes in a
checkered pattern and doesn't seem to help you out anywhere. Well it can help
you at times if you remember one important part of this game, when in doubt
and when you are unable to create a block, group colours together! Here's
about the worst possible thing you can do with a bunch of checkered blocks.
o-------------------------------------------------------o
| |

| |
| |

| +---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+ |
| |&&&| |&&&| |&&&| |&&&| | |
o---------------o---+---o---+---o---+---o---+---o-------o
See how they are all piled up in a grossly ugly pattern with little hope to
create any blocks at all in the future. Despite the aesthetically pleasing
nature of this setup, never ever do this. What you want to do instead is
group colours together. Remember, you CAN rotate blocks!
o-------------------------------------------------------o
| |
| |
| |
| |

o---------------o---+---o---+---o---+---o---+---o-------o
Take a look at this setup, it's EXACTLY the same and the exact same blocks
have not been moved around. This time whoever dropped the blocks into
position rotated them first to set this up, remember the only difference
between the above diagram and the one above it are that the blocks have been
rotated. In this one you can see that already the white block in the middle
is going to disappear. When it does the two coloured squares on top of it
will fall and land on the two coloured squares below to create ANOTHER block.
Now let's ignore that for a second and say you got another of these awful
checkered blocks. Notice the one falling on the right. When it lands it will
creates a coloured block of four and then after that disappears the two white
blocks on top will drop and create another coloured block. As you can see
when you set it up right with contiguous colours, they aren't too bad at all.
| umines /----------------------------------------------------------------o
|_ ----o----\ The L Design Block |
(000D2) \---------------------------------------------------------------o
You know the one I'm talking about, the block that has a single square on it
of a different colour so that the three of the opposite colour form an L
shape. These have numerous different uses not so much with each other but
rather when interacting with other blocks. This is the most common example,
learn to utilize this tactic and it will save you many times.
o-------------------------------------------------------o

| |
| |
| |
| o---o |
| |&&&| |
o-------------------o---o-------------------------------o
This is a simple example of what might often be a much more complicated setup,
but the idea remains the same. You have a single block of the same colour as
the L shape in the block you are dropping. What you want to do is rotate and
position it exactly like in the diagram above and then drop it down.
o-------------------------------------------------------o

o-------------------o---+---o---------------------------o
As you can see the two coloured blocks on the right side hit the bottom and
the single coloured block on the left stacked on top of the one that was
already on the ground to form a block which will then be eliminated the next
time the sweep comes by to make its run. Simple yes, but very effective.
Along the same lines is the opposite situation, when you have a single block
and an L design block of the opposite colour majority coming down.

The above diagram shows your two best options when given a situation like
this. While neither of them will actually create and destroy a block both of
them will give you the most colour contiguity possible, as shown below.

o-------------------o---+---o-------o---+---o---o-------o
Personally I find the one on the left to be the preferable choice but in the
end it's up to you. Notice on the left diagram that if you get one of the
annoying checker blocks what you can do. Notice that when that lands you are
going to create a block of white squares and then when they disappear the
coloured ones will drop and make another block. Correct me if I'm wrong but I
would say that the block coming down on the right side is about the best thing
you could hope for, however the end result isn't nearly as good.

|_ ----o----\ The II Design Block |
(000D3) \---------------------------------------------------------------o
The block that has two straight lines of opposite colours is one of the most
useful blocks you can get, but can also be one of the most destructive. Quite
often I find this block is used most of the time for shaving in half and
dropping two blocks of a single colour further down but it also serves and
even better purpose such that if you get two of them they can be rotated on
their side and you can get two blocks quite easily. Both tactics will be
outlined below on the same diagram, one on each side of the screen.
o-------------------------------------------------------o

| |&&&|&&&| |&&&| |&&&| |
o-------o---+---o-----------------------o---o---o---o---o
The setup on the left shows on of the most useful things you can do with the
II block horizontally while the diagram on the right shows the most useful
thing you can do with the II block vertically. Here's the result:
o-------------------------------------------------------o
| |
| |
| |
| |
| |
| |
| |
| |
| |
| |
| |

| o---+---o o---o |

| +---+---+ +---+---+---+ |
| |&&&|&&&| |&&&|&&&|&&&| |
o-------o---+---o-----------------------o---o---o---o---o
As you can see the setup on the left will cause the white block to disappear,
then the coloured squares on top will drop and form a coloured block which
will also disappear. On the right we see that the coloured squares have been
shaved off formed two blocks that will both disappear and net you more points,
so as you can see the II block is a powerful too when use correctly. When
used incorrectly however it's not so great. I find myself often dropping then
one on top of another vertically with little else to do and while two large
vertical lines of same-coloured squares might sound appealing, it needlessly
raises you up toward the top and they are hard to get rid of since you need to
eliminate them from the side. Long story short, don't do that.
| umines /----------------------------------------------------------------o
|_ ----o----\ The Full Colour Block |
(000D4) \---------------------------------------------------------------o
While dropping it down by itself can seem pretty appealing since it will just
be cleaned away, often the full colour block is better used as a combo tool:
o-------------------------------------------------------o
| |
| BAD! |

o---------------o---+---o-------------------------------o
While the first one will drop and disappear netting you some points and not
cluttering up the board, take a closer look at the second one. When it lands
it will create two blocks of six squares, eliminate all of them for more
points than the first one and leave you with less blocks. It's win win!
O============================================================================O
| Puzzle Mode (000E0) |
O============================================================================O
Puzzle mode is a special mode where you have to make certain patterns out of a
specific colour and not have any other coloured blocks adjacent to them. Lets
take the first puzzle to use as an example for what to do, and what not to.

One of these two diagrams will successfully complete the first puzzle while
the other one will not. Can you figure out which one is wrong? The answer is
the second one. Notice a perfectly shaped white cross in the middle, however
touching the right side is another white block that is no part of the shape.
This is a no-no. Which colour you choose is irrelevant, both are fair game.
When trying to complete puzzle mode all you are really doing is the same basic
thing over and over again which is piling useless blocks on the side while
taking blocks that you are waiting for and setting them up in the centre to
create the shape that you cant. I find that most of the time you are waiting
for the II design blocks with the L shaped ones a distant second. Full colour
ones are near useless here and the checkered blocks have limited use too.
Keep an eye on the upcoming blocks and make absolutely sure you know what
you're looking for. Personally I find that the best thing to do is completely
memorize the exact shape you are trying to make before you begin to minimize
the amount of time you waste looking at it on the side. There are quite a few
puzzle levels in this game, and while you really don't need an individual
strategy for each one, all the shapes you'll need to create are seen below.

There's a couple other things to make note of for the puzzle game, some of
these require a difficult trick for you to complete them like the 4x4 for
example. What you need to do is leave the middle open until the last possible
second and then wait until you see full colour blocks coming then put them in
place quickly before the sweep comes by and eliminates them so you have enough
time to stack them and achieve the goal. The other thing is that this isn't
the end of the puzzle section, there are twice as many puzzles however at this
point they loop and you must do everything you just did TWICE during the time
limit period. A little repetitious perhaps, but challenging nonetheless.
