    Planning tip

Choose an ability for the board

Section titled “Choose an ability for the board”

Push: a Warrior direction step pushes an aligned crystal row when the tile beyond is open (corridor example). Pull: when the Thief steps away from an adjacent crystal into a free tile, it follows into the tile she just left (corridor example). Swap: when the Wizard moves toward a block or crystal in clear line of sight, he swaps with the first visible object; if none is ahead, he walks normally (corridor example).

These moves let a team position objects in different ways. See the puzzle worlds overview for how ideas come together.
