How King’s Challenge works

  1. Earn a ticket

    Tickets come from progress in Adventure: complete enough levels and a ticket is added. Each run uses one.

  2. Beat the clock

    The board is the usual 8×8 and any full row or column clears. The run lasts sixty seconds.

  3. Keep your best

    When time is up you see your score, your best and a summary of blocks, lines and streak. Every run with a score pays coins.

Tips for a faster sprint

In sixty seconds, decisions cost more than moves.

  • Place first, perfect later

    A good placement now beats the best placement in five seconds. Keep your hand moving.

  • Build one lane at a time

    Fill the bottom row and a single column first; quick, simple clears keep the streak going.

  • Chase the streak, not the combo

    Clearing on consecutive turns builds a multiplier. Small clears every turn usually beat one big clear.

  • Trigger Fever early

    Fill the combo meter early: Fever multiplies every score for a few seconds, and in a sprint those seconds count double.

Playing against the clock

The timer sits in the corner and turns urgent as it runs down. There is no move limit, so the only question is how many clears you can fit into a minute.

Practice speed in Classic and your King’s Challenge scores follow: the same reading of the board, just faster.
