How to Play
Screw Pin Puzzle stacks colored plates, each held by bolts. A bolt can only be removed while nothing lies on top of it, so the bolts on the highest plate are free first. Every bolt you unscrew drops into a small tray below; when three bolts of the same color collect in the tray they cancel out, freeing space. The tray only holds a few bolts, so if it fills with colors that cannot match, the run is lost. Clear every plate before the tray jams, and use the level selector to face more plates, more colors, and deeper stacks as you climb. Chain clears back-to-back to build a combo: each consecutive set of three adds a bigger score multiplier (shown as Combo x2, x3…), so clearing plates in color order is worth far more than grabbing bolts at random.
Controls
- Tap a glowing bolt to unscrew it into the tray
- Match three tray bolts of one color to clear them
Tips & Tricks
- 1Free the bolts of plates that are not covered first
- 2Watch the tray: two of a color means the third is urgent
- 3Never pull a bolt whose color cannot pair up in time
- 4Count the bolts of each colour before the first pull — an odd colour count buried under a late plate is what jams the tray
- 5Clear a plate fully rather than nibbling at it; a half-opened plate still blocks every bolt underneath
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I lose?
The tray holds a limited number of bolts. If it fills up with colors that can no longer be matched into a group of three, the run ends.
Why can't I unscrew a bolt?
Only bolts with nothing on top are free. The plates above must be cleared first, so the top plate always comes off before the ones beneath it.
How do bolts leave the tray?
Three bolts of the same colour cancel out and free their slots. Until a third arrives, the first two stay in the tray.
What happens when the tray fills?
The run is lost. The tray holds only a few bolts, so colours that cannot be matched are what end a level.
Does it get harder?
Yes — the level selector adds more plates, more colours and deeper stacks as you climb.
