Controls
Tap pairs; use Hint and Undo. Use the control method described here for this activity. A new-round button replaces the current round.
A useful example
A same-row pair needs an empty route between its endpoints. Your next round may have a different position, so inspect it before acting. Check the stated objective.
Watch out for this
Three corners are invalid. Take a moment to reassess the position before continuing. After a move, check what changed. Decide which rule explains the new state before acting again.
