AcChen-Lite

Details

AcChen-Lite is the free version of AcChen. It is a simple to learn ‘find the matching tile‘ game - similar ( but different ) to MahJong. AcChen-Lite is more arcade-style than MahJong. AcChen-Lite is free and contains 4 levels + one bonus level.

Rules

Find two items with identical symbols. The tiles will disappear when you can 'connect' them with a line, which has two or less 'turning points' ( right angles ) in it. Screen Shots: Green ways will work ( 2 corners ), red won’t ( 3 corners ). Advance to the next level when the board is cleared.

One level can contain tiles in up to 3 layers. You might combine tiles on different layers. If you pick a tile from the top layer ( like in the screen shot below ) only tiles on the top layer block the way.

In general: if you pick items from different layers, the upper most layer is used for the search algorithm. Sounds difficult but if you give it a try you will figure in no time… ;)

Tiles with the same symbol might be located on top of each other. So the fastest pick is not always the best.

Solid Tiles: Solid tiles can’t be removed.

YingYang: If you pick a pair of YingYang the next picked symbol will be completely removed from the current level. If the YingYang is the last pair of a level you pick, you keep this special for the next level.

StartScreen

Not much to explain here. One thing to mention is the continue option. When you lost a game you can restart it from every 5th level once you have reached it. For example if you lose in level 7 you can restart at level 5. The practice mode is like the normal game but without the time limit, bonus maps and score.

Bottom In-Game Menu

If you are locked up in a level you can surrender the game with the left button.

Touching one of the YingYang buttons, selects two ‘matching’ tiles in the game map. If you touch one of the selected items, the items will disappear. You get an extra YingYang-Hint-Item after finishing a bonus level. You can collect a maximum of 3 hint items.

The right button activates the pause mode - tapping somewhere will deactivate the pause mode.

Bonus Level

Every 5th level is a bonus level. You start with 4 tiles and have to fill up the map. Every time you remove a pair, 4 new tiles will appear. If you manage to fill up the whole map, you receive a 100 point bonus. If the time runs out before, you advance to the next level. After finishing a bonus level you receive an extra YingYang-Hint-Item.

Scoring: The first successful pick scores 0 points. The next pick within 3 seconds, scores 4 points, within 5 seconds 2 point. After finishing a level, the remaining time is added to you score.

Have fun…
