How do we climb up when the ladder to the next floor is incomplete?
When the ladder leading to the next floor is incomplete, please check if you have cleared all stages located on the floor you're currently on.

How do we connect monsters?
There are two ways to connect monsters:

1. Click on the first monster, click off then draw a line over the monsters of the same color and click on the last monster to link them all. You can connect monsters by moving your mouse up, down, left, right and diagonally. The connected monsters will burst and add some points to your score.

2. You can also click on a monster, hold onto it, move your mouse to the next monster of the same color to connect them and click off only at the point when you reach the last monster.

You need to connect at least 3 same color monsters to make a match. If you connect 5 or more monsters, a Special bomb will be created.

If you see a better match while connecting monster, you can cancel the connection, just by going back to the first monster in the connection or you can also just move your mouse far enough from the connected monsters, then the connection will be automatically cancelled.

How do we choose between the Horizontal and Vertical Bomb while connecting monsters?
A Ringed (Horizontal or Vertical) Bomb is being made if you connect 5 monsters of the same color. You can choose between the Horizontal and Vertical Bombs while connecting monsters, just try going back and forth the 4th and 5th monsters to change the direction of the ring.

Another Ringed Bomb will be made at the place of the 8th monster, you can also choose the bomb you get by going back and forth 7th and 8th monsters,

and if you connect 11 monsters of the same color, you will get a Cross Bomb, having both vertical and horizontal rings.

I cannot ask or receive requests.
Requests might not be sent out or received due to unstable Facebook server condition. This is beyond our control so please try to wait a little until the server gets back to its normal condition. Also, received gifts are stored in the mailbox for only first 24 hours since their arrival.

You may check your notification app settings. If you have checked not to get any notifications from Facebook Apps, no gifts can be delivered to your account. Take a screenshot if possible and send the details to Facebook Help Center.

I asked friends for keys or lives, but no gifts are being sent.
You friends might have checked not to get any notifications from Facebook Apps. They need to uncheck this to be able to receive gifts.

They may check their app settings at https://www.facebook.com/settings?tab=applications -> find Link Flash -> Edit Settings -> Send you notifications -> Choose "Yes".

The problem may occur due to unstable server condition as well.

Friends sent me keys and it is nowhere to be found.
Received keys are stored for up to 24 hours in your mailbox. Keys will automatcially disappear after that, also please, note that you need to request new keys for every new episode. Therefore the Keys you received from your friends to unlock the episode 7, cannot be used to unlock the ladder to the episode 8.

Friends sent me keys but I can't use them to unlock the door.
Sent keys to open certain episode can be used for that episode only. For instance, if your friend sent a key to unlock the door of episode 10, that key can only be used to unlock the episode 10.

My friends list and invite list do not show anymore.
This may be caused by unstable condition of Facebook server. Please try again after a while and let us know if it lasts too long at support@purplekiwii.com
