Colorlines

Move chips to match 5 in a row, a column, or in a diagonal line. Try to remove as many chips as you can to stay in the game. Making a match will give you a free move. See if you can make a high score. The game only ends when the grid is full.

Colorlines was the original Russian DOS version of Lines. It is a turn-based board game. Each turn, three randomly colored chips fall on random grid of a 9x9 squares board.

Your mission in Colorlines is to re-locate the chips (by moving one of them per turn) to form lines consisting of five or more chips of the same color. The lines can be arranged vertically, horizontally, or diagonally. Each line you build immediately disappears, giving you points. There is basically no end to the game, but your first objective is to surpass the 3000 points scored. You lose when the entire board is filled with chips.

The game runs in a 1280 x 768 windowed screen and it can be enlarged or shrunk as needed. This allows you to play the game as you work on other tasks!
