Chain bomb & rock walls

One blast runs along a whole wall of touching rocks.

First appears on level 281

What it does

A chain bomb is a bomb with a spark on every cell of its fuse. Its blast runs through every rock touching the one it hits, and on through the rocks touching those: each takes one hit.

Rock walls are lines of 3 to 8 one-cell rocks, sometimes with one bend. One chain bomb opens the whole wall. A level-2 or level-3 rock in a wall takes one hit from the blast and needs bombs of its own for the rest.

How to beat it

  • Find the chain bomb aimed at the wall and clear its path, like any bomb.
  • Check the wall for dotted rocks: they need their own bombs as well.

Good to know

  • Level 281 introduces walls with one wall of 4 or 5 rocks and its chain bomb. From level 282 every level has at least one wall, and hard levels one more.
