If you get lost, or don't understand something, be sure to return to the main menu and check them out in the Tutorial.

When fighting bosses make sure to match the highlighted Runes, specifically colored, next to your, and the bosses portrait to defeat them.

The more Explosive Runes you match the quicker you can complete the levels.

When you match colored Runes you add to the Special Weapons count, of that Rune color so you build up Free Special Weapons. Special
Weapons come in very handy when you're running out of time to complete the level.

Make use of the special weapons to the right of the screen. These weapons range in effectiveness, from top to bottom. Each Special weapon has a cost in Gold and also range in cost. However, keep matching normal Runes to build up your Free Special Weapons.

The Red Special Weapon (at the top) will destroy a single square.

The Purple Special Weapon (at the very bottom) will destroy 15 squares.

Get rid of of Rune Blockers, from Expanding Ice, Growing Vines, Destructible crate and even Ravens that will try to get in your way and stop you from completing the levels, as soon as you can.

Catch as Ravens (black birds) for Gold.

If you pick 3 wrong potions the mixture will fail and you will lose the game.

However if you correctly match all the potions, and symbols, the mixture will succeed and you will be rewarded with some Free Special Weapons to use in the game levels.
