You can do this by placing runes on every square. After a rune is placed on a square, this square turns gold. Every rune you place must be next to another rune. A rune you place must also have the same color and/or shape as all adjacent runes. When you complete a row or column of runes, it will disappear, leaving more room to place the next runes.<br><br> You can discard runes by clicking the discard button or by right-clicking your mouse. You can discard three runes in a row. The fourth one you discard will end your game. Luckily, the forge cools down with every rune you place. You can place every rune next to a grey stone. Skulls destroy the runes they're placed on. This can work for you or against you.<br><br> This game has three skill levels. The higher the level the more difficult to place the runes. However, if you succeed you earn more points in higher skill levels. <h2>Controls</h2> Use the mouse to place the runes.
