Gameplay
You can grab a tile and move it left, right, up, or down (but not diagonally) to create a match of at least 3 of the same rune in a row. When you make a match, one magic bolt is launched for each rune that is part of the match, destroying the rune in the process. The remaining runes drop down to fill in the space and new runes replace empty spots from the top. Bigger matches will launch more magic bolts and provide extra rewards as well.

Matching 4 runes places a coin in the tower board that you can click on for triad coins.

Matching 5 horizontally or vertically places a gem in the tower board that you can click on for bonus XP.

Matching 5 in an L-shape or a T-shape places a Healing Potion in the tower board that you can click on to heal your tower and walls for 100 points.

Matching 6 runes places a large treasure chest in the tower board that you can click on for a lot of triad coins.

Matching 7 places a bomb in the tower board that you can click on to detonate surrounding runes and send out a lot of magic bolts.
