Game Tab of Edit Options

The Game Tab of Edit Options looks as below:

Start Rows

To change the start rows, which is the number of rows that show up on new games/new levels, use the Start Rows option. This can go from 1 to 5. You can also access this option from Options/Start Rows. Remember to Save if you want to have the same number of rows the next time you play. The number of Start Rows is 3 by default.

Game Size

You can play the game in 9 row, 12 row or 16 row mode. The game is a bit harder in 12-row mode than 9-row, and harder in 16-row than 12-row, to make up for the extra rows that you get. You MUST Save in order to have a new mode start, since the new row mode will only be in effect the next time you start the program.

Random Mode

Random Mode has its own help file, which you can read about here.

Graphics Buffered

If you find that the board flickers a bit too much for your tastes, flick on "Graphics Buffered," and the flicker will be gone. However, all moves, and the row shift, will be noticeably slower. This option is "ON" by default.
