Purple = Scorpion (see description above), Color bomb : eliminates all the spheres of the selected color on the screen (in this case white) Yellow = Stop (see description above), Wild sphere : it can be of any color so it either creates a match or helps you make a match later in the level Green = Net, Reverse (see descriptions above)
Red = Fireball, Speed shot (see descriptions above) This is where the list I made of all the power ups that are available in game, associated with their sphere color, can help you:īlue = Lightning bolt, Slow (see descriptions above) I find it a lot more efficient and fun to plan gaming by selecting which power up will be the most appropriate at one point in a level. When playing at first, I did not really understand why or how I would get power ups until I realized they were linked to the color of the spheres used to make a 3rd match in a row. They will appear when making a 3rd consecutive match as you play, however.

Some power ups are not available for upgrade in store. Pyramid blocker : blocks the entrance to the pyramid and blasts a maximum of 20 spheres Match highlighter : shows where you can make a match in the whole screen for 20 seconds Scorpion : destroys a maximum of 20 spheres in the string that is closest to the pyramid What you may buy in store is (again, the properties are listed for the maximum power):Ĭolor cloud : changes all the spheres in its radius to the color selected by the power up (in this case yellow), the range being roughly 8 spheres in diameter Very advanced levels will incorporate light blue and orange spheres. The first levels include blue, green, red and yellow spheres, but further levels will introduce purple, white and black spheres. Colors are added into Set's strings and more power ups are also available. The more you play, the more difficult the game becomes. Speed shot : shows the firing target for 20 seconds Reverse : reverses the strings for 5 secondsįireball : has a circular blasting effect of roughly 8 spheres in diameter Net : catches all the game drops (coins, gems, power ups) for 35 seconds Slow : slows down the speed of the strings for 5 seconds Lightning bolt : has a vertical blasting effect of roughly 4 spheres width for the whole screen's height In the first levels you may have the pleasure of using and upgrade in store (their properties are listed for their maximum power, as I fully upgraded all of them): The other ones are locked until you reach a certain level (which I do not know by heart). At the beginning of the game, only a few power ups are available during gameplay and inside the store. A fireball's range can then be increased, or a slowing effect will be longer. But as you "shop" to upgrade them, you can get them to "medium", "large" and "huge" status. They all start at the "small" status: either they affect only a few spheres or they last only 2 seconds. At first you may wonder which power ups you feel like improving. Luxor 3 is fun because you accumulate Ankh coins while playing and these coins can be used in the store to increase the potency of power ups. Your job is then to catch it if you wish to use it. These blue spheres would constitute your 3rd match and a power up would be thrown in the air right after the match is made. In the above screen it is possible to make 3 matches by hitting the black pair with a black sphere, then the red ones will collapse together and finally the blue ones will collapse as well. At times I find it better to create pairs into a string before starting to eliminate spheres altogether, just so I can get many power ups in a short time. But be careful, the number of matches will get reset 1) if you miss your shot and 2) if you have no other choice but to add spheres to singles on a string. The matches may accumulate beyond 3 so you can get a power up after your 6th, 9th, 12th match, etc. The Gods appreciate when you make several matches in a row and will reward you with a power up when you complete your 3rd match in a series.
A match can be done when you hit a group of 2+ spheres with one of yours being of the same color.
The goal in Luxor is to make matches with your own spheres and the ones lined up in a moving string.

It took me some time to figure out how to get, for instance, a fireball (I love that one) every time I wanted one. There is a logic when obtaining the power ups in Luxor and this guide will help you with some strategy tips. You can match spheres here and there, hoping to make points and get cool stuff once in a while, but as the game gets harder, you'll likely need to add in some strategy into your gameplay. There are various ways of playing Luxor 3.
