Ruby Rush

Ruby Rush is an arcade puzzle game focused on gem collection and board control. The player starts from the center of the grid and expands by selecting colors to claim adjacent gems of the same type.

Core mechanics

Each move changes the controlled area on the board. By planning moves carefully, you can form perfect squares that merge gems into stronger combinations. These combinations trigger chain reactions and significantly increase the score.

Strategy and progression

The game rewards forward planning rather than random tapping. You need to consider how each color choice affects future shapes and potential squares. As you progress, rare special gems appear, adding new tactical options and higher scoring potential.

Game over condition

The session ends when the board is completely filled and no effective moves remain. This creates a constant trade-off between short-term gains and long-term board management, making Ruby Rush closer to a strategic puzzle than a simple casual clicker.
