Lumines Puzzle Mode?

[Scott]

How do you 'win' the puzzle mode in Lumines?  I need to just get started, by creating a simple cross, and can't figure out what that means or how to do it.  What am I missing?   The instructions had nothing on it.  Can someone walk me through the first puzzle?

You have to make a cross like this:

xoxo
ooox
xoxx

Note the cross formed by the "o"s

You need to create the puzzle picture they give you, using a  single continguous color.

For example the cross:
x= color 1
o = color 2

Code:

This would be the simplest pattern:
0x0
xxx
0x0


this would work too:

ooxo
oxxx
ooxo

or this

ooxoo
oxxxo
ooxoo

But this would NOT work

ooXXo
ooXoo
oXXXo
ooXoo

you can not have any blocks of the same color touching your pattern. All adjacent blocks must be the opposite color.

A simple search on this forum would have answered your question.  Nearly an identicle Subject Title as well (no question mark, though).

Thanks for the help.  I must have had other blocks hitting the main pattern.  I assume you win right away?

Yes, Bullwinkle, probably should have searched.  Thanks for your helpful reply though...  I'll try to minimize forum traffic in the future as there are so many posts a day....

You beat the level when the sweep bar crosses the completed pattern.
