How to Play Match Heist

Match Heist is a 3D car match puzzle. Every level gives you a crowded board of colorful cars and a tray with a limited number of slots underneath it. Tap a car and it drives into the next free slot in your tray. Get three cars of the same color into the tray and they clear away together, freeing the slots back up.

The rules in short

• Tap to collect. Tapping a car moves it from the board into your tray.
• Three of a color clears. Any three matching cars in the tray disappear automatically.
• Keep the tray from filling. If every slot is occupied and no match is available, the level ends.
• Clear the board to win. Remove every car and the heist crew gets their route out.

Your first few levels

1. 1

   Start with what you can see

   Cars on the top of a stack are easy to reach. Cars underneath only become tappable once the ones above them are gone, so work top-down.

2. 2

   Collect in threes, not ones

   Before you tap, look for a colour that already has two or three cars visible. Tapping a lone car of a colour you cannot complete costs you a tray slot for the rest of the level.

3. 3

   Leave yourself room

   Try to keep at least two free slots at all times. That spare room is what lets you dig for the car you actually need.
