About Screw Match
Screw Match is a colour-matching puzzle with a small twist of pressure. The board is filled with screws of different colours, and boxes appear with target colour sets. Drag screws into the matching box to complete it and clear screws off the board.
A small bar fills as time passes. If it fills before you clear a box, the game ends. The board never gets calm — there is always one more colour to chase — but every cleared box buys breathing room.
How to play
Drag a screw of the matching colour into the active box. Fill the box's targets to clear it. Keep clearing boxes before the timer bar fills.

Tips & tricks
- Clear the highest-count colour first — it tightens the board fastest.
- Multiple boxes are usually active; pick the one closest to completion.
- When the bar is near full, dump any colour into a completable box, even if other moves are tidier.
- Boards refill — sweep one colour clean rather than splitting attention.
- Resets are quick. Don't grind against a layout that isn't clearing.
Frequently asked questions
Does the time bar reset?
Each cleared box pauses or refills part of the bar.
Are there multiple boxes at once?
Yes — usually two or three boxes active simultaneously.
Can I undo a wrong placement?
Wrong placements stay, but you can keep playing — they just slow your progress.
Does it work on touch?
Yes — touch-drag is the primary control.
