KDiamond
Description
KDiamond is a tile-matching game, in which the player has to build rows or columns of at least three identical colors. This is done by exchanging to adjacent stones (horizontal or vertically, not diagonal). Overall there are six colors on the board. The board size can be configured by the game difficulty. In the "Very hard" setting the board is of the size 8x8, while in the "Very easy" mode the board has a size of 12x12. If stones are removed, all stones from above the position are falling down and the missing stones are replaced with random stones at the top. With clever planning (or simply luck) chain reactions of removed tiles are produced by the falling blocks.
The game can be played with or without time limit. If playing with time limit removing stones also grants some bonus time, so the end is not fixed, but can be extended by removing many tiles. KDiamond has different graphical tile sets and a high-score table. Hints can be shown on request and in the toolbar the amount of possible moves in the current board position is shown.
