The order of play

An example before you play
If the four corner squares were shown, select those four corners in any order. Focus on why the action is allowed, not only its outcome. Notice the change in the playing area.
Avoid this misunderstanding
Unlike Sequence Memory, this game does not require the original order. A different version of the game may use a different rule. After a move, check what changed. Decide which rule explains the new state before acting again.
