How to play
- Every cell’s capacity equals its number of neighbours (corner 2, edge 3, centre 4).
- Tap a cell to add one charge.
- The instant a cell reaches capacity it overloads: it resets and pushes energy into each neighbour.
- Neighbours that fill up overload too, cascading in waves. You have a limited number of taps — score big chains.
Strategy & tips
- Look for cells already near capacity next to other near-full cells — one tap can start a rolling chain.
- Centre cells reach more neighbours, so a well-placed centre overload spreads furthest.
- Set up a cascade rather than spending taps one at a time; the combo multiplier rewards big chains.
- Aim to clear the whole board in a run for the Perfect Storm bonus.
- Spend your last taps to trigger the biggest possible single cascade.
FAQ
What happens when a cell overloads?
It resets to zero and sends one charge to each orthogonal neighbour at once; any neighbour that reaches capacity then overloads too, chaining across the board.
Is Overload free?
Yes — it plays free in your browser with no download or sign-up, on desktop and mobile.
How do I score high?
Trigger long cascades — each overload in a single chain raises the combo multiplier, so one perfect tap can sweep the grid.
Does my best score save?
