About Line 98 classic: Classic Color Ball Puzzle Game
Line 98 classic is a free online puzzle game inspired by the popular Color Lines 98 game. The goal is straightforward: move colorful balls across the board, form lines of five or more same-colored balls — horizontally, vertically, or diagonally — and clear them to score points. No download or installation is needed; the game runs directly in a browser on desktop or mobile.
The challenge builds naturally as the board fills up after every move. Planning ahead is essential to keep space open, and longer lines reward higher scores. Simple controls, addictive gameplay, and endless challenges make it a strong pick for fans of color matching, ball puzzle, and classic logic games.
How to Play Line 98 classic: Score Points by Clearing Lines
The objective is to score as many points as possible by creating lines of five or more balls of the same color. Lines count horizontally, vertically, or diagonally.
Select a ball, then choose an empty cell to move it. A ball can only travel to a destination if a clear, unobstructed path exists between its current position and that cell. After each move, new balls appear on the board, gradually filling the grid.
Forming longer lines earns more points and clears more space for future moves. The game ends when no empty cells remain and no valid move is possible. Keeping the board open and beating a personal best score are the ongoing goals.
Controls
- Mouse: click to select and move balls
- Touchscreen: tap to select and move balls
