How to play
Stack pills, clear rows, and choose when to bottle matching batches.
Stack & clear
- Move and rotate each falling piece into place.
- Fill a horizontal row with any pill types to clear it.
- Clear 10 rows to level up. Keep the stack below the top of the tray.
Hold lets you save or swap a piece once per turn. The ghost outline shows where a hard drop will land.
Build & bottle
Make a 2×2, 3×3, or 4×4 square of one pill type: red/cream capsules, white tablets, or blue caplets.
- Space / Drop: place the piece and clear rows.
- B / Bottle + drop: drop the piece and collect matching squares, largest first.
Collecting a batch settles loose pills before rows clear. New matches wait for the next bottle drop. Row clears can remove an uncollected square.

Row and batch points are multiplied by your level. Soft drop adds 1 point per cell; hard drop adds 2. Filling the current Rx adds 200 × level.
Clears above four rows score in groups of four plus the remainder.
