About this game

Tap two neighboring tiles to swap them and match three or more in a row. Look at the resources you need for the equipment you want to use. The computer gets its own turn, so watch the timer and its side of the board.

Juan J. Martínez made For Science! for PyWeek 16. The Libre Arcade browser port follows the post-contest 1.0.1 release and includes a demo that lets you watch the computer play both sides.
