(It makes no sense but it's fun once you get good at it)\r\n\r\nA good game for people who like 2048, Gridland, or strategy\/planning games.\r\n\r\nBest played in either Chrome or Firefox, mostly was tested in Chrome. There are a couple bugs that happen from time to time, if the whole game stops working just reload the page.\r\n\r\nThe controls for this game are simple and listed below:\r\n\r\n- Arrow keys or WASD to move your player around\r\n- Space will place the next color to where you are standing\r\n- Pressing \"e\" will harvest the block of colors you are standing on (you must harvest a minimum of three squares at once)\r\n\r\nIf you imagine that each cluster of colors is a field, \"e\" harvests the whole field and gains you points. If a monster is in that field (on the right) when you harvest it, that monster will die. \r\n\r\nDon't let the monsters touch you!","title":"Silo"}
