+You have a grid of coloured squares, which you have to clear by 
+highlighting contiguous regions of more than one coloured square;
+the larger the region you highlight, the more points you get (and
+the faster you clear the arena).
+
+If you clear the grid you win. If you end up with nothing but 
+single squares (i.e., there are no more clickable regions left) you
+lose.
+
+Removing a region causes the rest of the grid to shuffle up:
+blocks that are suspended will fall down (first), and then empty
+columns are filled from the right. 
+
+The game generator does not try to guarantee soluble grids;
+it will, however, ensure that there are at least 2 squares of each 
+colour on the grid at the start (and will forbid custom grids for which
+that would be impossible).

+This game can be played with either the keyboard or the mouse.
+
+If you left-click an unselected region, it becomes selected (possibly
+clearing the current selection). 
+
+If you left-click the selected region, it will be removed (and the
+rest of the grid shuffled immediately).
+
+If you right-click the selected region, it will be unselected. 
+
+The cursor keys move a cursor around the grid. Pressing the Space or
+Enter keys while the cursor is in an unselected region selects it;
+pressing Space or Enter again removes it as above.
