ABOUT THE GAME
SARUPA game overview
SARUPA is a portrait match-three puzzle played on a tree filled with falling monkeys. Rather than swapping any two adjacent pieces, you click a monkey to change its left-right position. The aim is to align three monkeys of one color vertically so that the completed group disappears and creates room for more pieces. The challenge grows as the level number rises because additional monkey types begin to fall. A separate Difficult option increases the pressure by dropping two monkeys together, which also creates more opportunities for chained clears. Successful matches fill a gauge on the right side of the play area, providing a visible measure of activity during the round.
WHAT TO EXPECT
Before you start
Each turn asks you to read the descending arrangement, shift one monkey sideways, and look ahead for vertical matches before the growing color variety complicates the board.
GETTING STARTED
How to play SARUPA
Watch where the falling monkeys are settling, then select the one whose horizontal position should change. A useful move places it above or below two matching colors, or prepares a column that can be completed by a later drop.
Clear vertical trios repeatedly as the level develops. In Difficult mode, account for both incoming monkeys before committing to a switch, since a choice that helps one column can close space needed by the other.

Tips for SARUPA
- Scan all columns before clicking so one quick match does not spoil another setup.
- Keep several colors partially aligned when later levels add more monkey types.
- In Difficult mode, judge the pair of falling monkeys as one combined placement problem.
