The 1998 ball-sorting puzzle, now with 64-player battles. Line up five. Ruin someone's day.

One Tail Studio updated 2d ago 29 MB engine 30

In a world where colours refuse to line up… one puzzle game dared to ask: what if there were 64 of you?


Lines 98 is the classic Color Lines you lost a whole school year to: a 9×9 board, seven colours, and three new balls falling in every time you make a move that clears nothing. Line up five or more in a row, column or diagonal and they vanish. Fill the board and it's over. That's it. That's the game. It has been the game since 1998.

Except now it's personal.

Solo

  • Beat the King. Become the King. The King is 100 points until you embarrass him.
  • Undo, hints, a top-ten Records table and lifetime stats, so you can prove you were good once.
  • Daily board: everyone gets the same board each day. No excuses. Keep the streak alive.

Shared board (2–8 players)

  • One board, one score, everyone's fault.
  • Free play or Take turns with a 30-second clock. Friends can drop in mid-round.
  • No friends online? Practice together with 1–3 bot teammates. They don't judge. Much.

Last one standing (up to 64 players)

  • Everyone gets the same starting board. Only one walks away.
  • Every line you clear lands on someone else's board as incoming balls.
  • Target Random, Near KO, Badges or your Attackers. Collect KO badges for stronger attacks.
  • Fill the gaps with Normal or Strong bots, pick a Standard or Quick turn clock, or practise offline against 63 bots who have never slept.

Also included

  • 200 achievements. Some players just can't handle that many balls.
  • Full keyboard and controller support with rebindable keys.
  • Colourblind symbols, high contrast, reduced motion and UI scaling.
  • An original synthwave battle soundtrack, which is more than 1998 ever gave you.
Lines 98. Ninety-eight years in the making. …It's a puzzle game.
