12 In Angry, Drunken Dwarves, you are an angry, drunken dwarf. Why are you
13 so angry? Who knows. But you've decided to take your aggression out on
14 other dwarves, by dropping gems on their heads. Lots of gems.
15
16 You have your own supply of gems, which will slowly fall from the top
17 of the screen. As gems reach the bottom, they will land and sit in
18 place. If you put enough gems of the same color in a rectangle shape,
19 they will merge and form a crystal.
20
21 Less common are break gems, which are circular. When you drop a break
22 gem on a gem or crystal of the same color, it will destroy any gems of
23 that color adjacent to it. Crystals are worth much more than an equal
24 number of regular gems.
