Why beads are counted
Every work has its own bead boxes. Each template color starts with 120 beads in its box. Colors needing more get the pattern amount plus 5 spares, with overflow kept in reserve. Tap “+10” to use that reserve first, then add more beads if needed.
How to play
Tweezers
Pick a bead out of a box, drag it over a peg and let go: it slides right on. Beads on the board can be picked up too. Drop one on another peg to move it, or off the board to drop it on the table.
Bead pen
Aim the crosshair at a bead box, a loose bead on the table or a bead on the board and hold right-click: the needle threads beads on one by one, the highlighted one first. Keep holding and drag over loose beads or the board to scoop them all up; let go to stop. A little rod keeps them at the tip. Beads on the board need a short hold, until the ring around the crosshair fills; pressing and dragging right away just pans the view. Holds up to 18 beads in any mix of colors, last on, first off; the tag on the pen's end shows how many are left and their colors. Click to press the spring trigger by the tip and the front bead drops: onto a peg over the board (hold and drag to lay a line), anywhere else it lands where it is (hold to drop one after another, then pick them up with the tweezers). "Tidy up" pours the pen's beads back into their boxes.
