Twelves

Twelves is a game of sliding red, blue, and green squares.  When you start, you have a full board with twelve squares of each of each color.  It looks something like this, though every game is different.

start

Choose a square of any color that has another square of the same color right next to it, in the same row or column.

before_first_move

Touch one and slide it onto the other.

after_first move

You can slide a square along a row or column onto another square of the same color.  When you lift your finger, the two squares are combined.  Once some of the squares on the board are empty (black), you can slide across them.  The move below starts on the white highlighted square and ends on the empty square highlighted in green.
