Route Candle

This section introduces handy tips for playing this game.

FAQs

(1) Can I choose whichever stage I want to play?

No, initially, you can only choose 5 stages to play.
Once you have played each of these 5 stages, you will unlock the next five (even if you hadn't cleared every stage).


(2) When retrying the game, I forget where I had placed the flags in my previous game.

When you retry the game, faint, burnt traces of the flags will appear in their previously-placed grid locations from the last game.
However, the flag placement order will remain a mystery, so do what you can to remember.


(3)What does 'Par' in the screen's upper right section mean?

game screen

'Par' indicates the goal number of flags required to clear a stage.
After you successfully clear a stage once, try to clear the same stage again with the number of flags indicated by the 'Par' number!
* 'Par' is the standard number of flags required for players trying to clear a stage with all the score items.

You may be able to clear some stages with even fewer flags than the 'Par' number.


(4)Is it true that I can place flags one after the other?

Yes, you can place flags successively even while the 'flame' is walking.
Once you think you know the best route to clear a stage, you can place all the flags in advance.
However, you should remember that this route could change if a 'puddle' or 'bomb' disappears.
The route chosen by the 'flame' will differ depending on whether you set the route before or after a 'puddle' or 'bomb' disappears.

Don't get too carried away placing flags one after the other, as you may fall into 'pitfall traps.'


(5)Give me tips on how to achieve a higher score.

The more matches the 'flame' walks with, the higher the score you can get:you get [100pts x the number of Buddy matches] with every step.
In addition, you will get a bonus score if you can manage to light more than one candle per flag used to guide the 'flame.'
The normal score for lighting one candle is 2,000pts, while bonus scores of 4,000pts and 8,000pts will be earned for lighting 2 or 3 candles in a row, respectively.
The key to achieving a higher score is being conscious of these two points during the game.


(6)After I place all the flags successively, I get bored just watching the flame walk around.

While the 'flame' is walking, the bottom-right button turns into the "DASH" button.
Tap this "DASH" button to make the 'flame' move at double speed.
This is the perfect function for impatient players.


(7)I can't get the score items when they appear in tricky places.

In order to get a score item in a hard-to-reach place, such as the one indicated in this picture, force the 'flame' to go around in a circle by placing the flag accordingly.
This will allow the 'flame' to get the item.
When placing flags, consider which directions and locations will be easiest for making the 'flame' travel in a circle, if required.
