How it plays
Classic match-3 at your own pace, with a spicy meter to fill and chocolate that fights back.
Make specials
Four in a row makes a line sweet that clears its whole row or column.
Five in a row makes a bomb that blasts a 3×3 area.
An L or T shape makes a colour clear that removes every sweet of one kind.
Goals and obstacles
Each level asks for a score, a set of sweets, cleared obstacles, ghee pots brought down to the bottom, or sweets rescued from golden ghee. Ice, spreading chocolate and foil-wrapped chocolate get in the way, on boards shaped like diamonds, crosses and thalis.
Boosters and lives
Equip Ghee Bomb, Sweet Start or Head Start before a level; use Thali Hammer, Masala Shuffle or +5 Moves during one. You have five lives: losing a level uses one, and they refill one every 30 minutes.
Masala Meter
Fill the meter, fire Spice Scatter
Ordinary matches heat the Masala Meter from mild to garam. At full charge, Spice Scatter turns six sweets into specials (two row-clearers, two column-clearers and two bombs) and sets them all off at once.
From level 13
Sweet Revenge: snap back at chocolate
If chocolate survives your move, it tries to spread. A ring closes around the sweet it's about to swallow:
- Tap SNAP as the rings meet to stop the spread and fire a line special from that sweet.
- Hit it dead on for a Perfect: a bomb fires instead, with extra Masala.
- Too early or too late, and the chocolate spreads.
A counter never costs a move, so it can even save a level on your last one.
A journey through five states
Each state is a route of 30 cities, one level per city, ending in a finale. Win every city to earn silver. Three-star all 30 to unlock that state's mastery challenge; beat it to earn gold and a new companion.
