KDE kdegames game Klickety board logic strategy one player Introduction Gametype:Board Number of possible players:One &klickety; is an adaptation of the Clickomania game. The rules are similar to those of the Same game: your goal is to clear the board by clicking on groups to destroy them. The overall aim is to get the lowest score possible. It will provide entertainment for all abilities, but a challenge in logical thought if you want to get a really low score. How to Play Objective:Clear the game board of all the colored blocks in the least possible time. When you start the program you will get a screen that looks something like the screenshot in the previous section. The idea of the game is to remove blocks, which you do by clicking on them. However, you can only remove a block if it is adjacent to one or more other blocks of the same color on one or more of its sides. Diagonal connections do not count. You get a random board every time you start a new game. If you click on a block which is connected as described, it will disappear. Any adjacent blocks of the same color will also disappear, along with all of the same color adjacent to them, and so on. Any blocks above them drop down to fill the gaps left by the disappeared pieces. If you clear an entire column, all the columns to the right move across to fill the gap. The game ends when there are no blocks adjacent to other blocks of the same colour. The Game Screen A screenshot of &klickety; Screenshot A quick explanation of the parts of the game screen. Game Screen The Game screen is in the center of the screen and is the largest section of the window. Statusbar The Status bar is located at the bottom of the screen. It displays how many pieces are left currently and the game timer, which keeps track of the elapsed time from the start of the game until the game is finished. The KSame Mode &klickety; provides a &ksame; scoring mode. The score is calculated as follows: Subtract 2 from the number of marbles erased, and square the result. As an example, if you erase 7 balls, then you get 25 points (7 minus 2 = 5. 5 squared is 25 points).If you erase 8 balls, then you get 36 points (8 minus 2 = 6. 6 squared is 36 points. Get as many of the same pieces as you can, and then erase them in one click. That way you will get a higher score. The game is over when there are no pieces that can be erased. The score will then be decreased according to the number of remaining pieces. If you erase all pieces 1,000 bonus points will be added to the final score.
