How to play

  • Choose a colored marble from your hand and place it in the loader slot.
  • After every placement, the whole ring automatically rotates a fixed number of slots — you never control the rotation directly.
  • Line up three marbles of the same color anywhere along the ring and they clear, scoring points and opening space.
  • The ring fills up and locks in more marbles the longer you go without clearing a match — if it fills completely, the run ends.

Strategy & tips

  • Think one rotation ahead — since the ring always turns the same amount after your placement, you can predict exactly where today’s marble will land next turn.
  • Difficulty changes the ring size and rotation step, so a plan that works on Easy will not directly transfer to Hard.
  • Clearing early keeps the ring from filling up, which matters more than chasing a bigger match once space gets tight.
  • Watch for near-complete color runs building up around the ring, not just next to the loader — the rotation will bring them to you.

FAQ

How do you play Carousel?

Pick a marble from your hand (click, tap, or number keys 1-3) and place it at the loader. The ring then rotates on its own by a fixed amount before your next turn.

Why did the ring move without me doing anything?

That is the core twist — every placement triggers an automatic rotation, so you are always planning around where the ring will be next, not just where it is now.

What happens if the ring fills up?

The run ends. Clear same-color runs of three or more before that happens to keep space open.
