The three power-ups
- Rocket 🚀 — match 4 in a line. Shoots across the board — great for reaching fruit stuck at the edges.
- Bomb 💣 — match in an L or T shape. Blasts the area around it; ideal for patches of grass tiles.
- Rainbow Ball 🌈 — match 5 in a row. The strongest piece on the board — keep it for the moment it finishes a goal.

Combine, don’t spend
The game lets you combine power-ups, and that is where the big clears come from. Two power-ups swapped into each other clear far more of the board than the same two used one at a time. When you have a rocket, look for a way to build a bomb next to it before firing.
Five habits for 3-star clears
- Read the goal first. Grass tiles and fruit goals need different moves — don’t chase pretty matches that do neither.
- Match low on the board. New fruit falls from the top, so bottom matches cause more free cascades.
- Finish early when you can. Leftover moves turn into bonus rockets at the end of a level — that is free score.
- Save hammers and shuffles for the last few moves of a level you are about to lose.
- Don’t fire a Rainbow Ball just because you have one — it is worth most when combined with another power-up.
Spend your stars on the farm
Every level earns stars, and stars pay for farm tasks: clearing weeds, fixing the roof, building a chicken coop, cow barn, pond and windmill. Production buildings matter most — chickens, cows and bees supply eggs, milk and honey for the bakery, dairy, jam kitchen and cake shop, and filling villagers’ orders earns coins. Then step inside Grandma’s house and redecorate it in Classic, Modern or Cozy style.
