About this game
Sugar Swap is a polished, swap-adjacent gem puzzle you can play free in your browser with no download. Swap any two neighbouring gems to line up three or more of the same shape in a row or column; the matched gems burst, everything above tumbles down to fill the gaps, and fresh gems drop in from the top. That fall often triggers new lines all on its own, and those cascades chain together for escalating combo bonuses — the real points live in setting up one swap that detonates three or four times over. It's an honest, no-gimmick take on the genre: swaps that wouldn't make a match simply slide back and cost you nothing, so you can probe the board freely. You play against a limited move count rather than a clock, which turns every swap into a small decision — spend it on a quick trio, or hunt for the cascade that clears half the board. If the grid ever runs out of legal moves, it reshuffles for free so you're never stranded. With snappy feedback and a clean, readable board, it's easy to pick up for a minute and hard to stop chasing a new high score.
How to play
Desktop: click a gem then click an adjacent gem to swap them, or click-drag one gem toward the neighbour you want to trade with. Mobile: tap a gem then its neighbour, or swipe a gem in the direction you want to move it. Line up 3+ identical shapes to clear them; a swap that makes no match just reverts, free of charge. Tips: 1) Look before you swap — a move that drops gems into a second, waiting match cascades for far more points than a plain three. 2) Because failed swaps cost nothing, test the edges of clusters to find the one gem that links two potential lines at once. 3) With moves limited, prioritise setups that trigger chain reactions over easy singles, and don't panic if you stall — the board reshuffles itself when no moves remain.
