Orbie is an exhilarating game that combines strategy with speed, challenging players to climb to the top of the leaderboard. The goal is simple yet engaging: clear the screen of orbs by aligning three or more of the same color either horizontally or vertically. As the game progresses, new orbs continuously appear at the bottom of the screen, and if they reach the top, it's game over. This dynamic keeps the gameplay fast-paced and thrilling.

To keep the game going, players must utilize Super Orbs, which are crucial for survival. You can earn a Super Orb by creating combinations—clearing multiple lines with a single move—or by aligning five orbs of the same color in a row. Starting with three Super Orbs, you can strategically remove any column of orbs, giving you a significant advantage in managing the board.

Another powerful tool at your disposal is the Lightning Orb, which can be purchased with coins at the start of the game. By placing a Lightning Orb on any color, you can eliminate all orbs of that color from the screen, creating a dramatic shift in the game's dynamics. Coins, earned for every orb cleared, can also be used to buy additional Super Orbs or Lightning Orbs, enhancing your strategic options.

For those looking to compete with friends, logging into Facebook allows you to compare scores and strive to be at the top of the Orbie leaderboard. It's a great way to add a social element to your gaming experience and push your skills to the limit.

With each update, Orbie continues to evolve. The latest version 2.06, updated on June 13, 2016, introduces a "Rate Me" feature that rewards players with 30,000 coins for rating the app. Previous updates have included graphical enhancements, high score displays, and a tutorial to help new players get started. From version 2.04's improved graphics and game over screen high scores to version 1.9's addition of a pause button, each update has been designed to enhance your gaming experience.

So, dive into the world of Orbie, master the use of Super Orbs and Lightning Orbs, and see if you can outscore your friends. Happy Orbing, and don't forget to rate the game to earn those extra coins!
