A useful example
One placement can clear both a row and a column. Use the example as a guide rather than a substitute for reading your board. Keep the controls nearby.
Watch out for this
Pieces cannot rotate in this edition. Read the feedback to see why an action did not have the expected result. Take enough time to read a new position. If a game has a timer, learn its controls first rather than searching for them during the round.
