Color Lines 98 Online — the beloved colored lines game, now online with global rankings
Color Lines 98 Online is a free browser-based lines game inspired by the classic Color Lines by Gamos and Lines 98 by Sorcerer Software. Everything familiar is still here: a 9×9 board, seven ball colors, lines of five or more, thoughtful moves, and the fight for free space.
Build lines, clear the board, prepare strong combinations, and score points. The game runs directly in your browser — with no download, no installation, and no account required to start.
Why Play Color Lines 98 Online
Color Lines 98 Online keeps the spirit of the classic game, but adds what it lacked before: fair online competition, shared games, global rankings, and the ability to replay completed games.
Daily Board
Every day, all players receive the same game: the same starting board and the same sequence of balls. One board, one attempt for the result, and equal conditions for everyone.
That is why Daily Board shows not a lucky layout, but real skill.
Global Leaderboards
Compare your results with players from around the world. Color Lines 98 Online includes a daily Daily Board ranking and all-time records for each mode.
Play better, score more points, and climb higher in the global ranking.
Replays and Game Replay
Every game is saved in full. You can replay it move by move, analyze your mistakes, study games from strong players, and understand how a high score was achieved.
Replays also help confirm result fairness: behind every score in the leaderboard there is a complete game recording.
Three Game Modes
Color Lines 98 Online offers three modes:
- Standard — the next three balls are shown directly on the board in advance.
- Classic — only the colors of the next balls are visible, but not the cells where they will appear.
- Blind — no hints about future balls, only calculation, memory, and intuition.
The rules are the same in every mode; only the amount of information about upcoming moves changes.
No Pay-to-Win
Color Lines 98 Online is built around fair competition. Purchases, visual themes, and cosmetics do not affect the board, the sequence of balls, or scoring.
The winner is not the one who pays, but the one who plays better.
How Scoring Works
In Color Lines 98 Online, your result depends on how many balls you remove in one move. A line of n balls gives:
n×(n+1)/2 − 10 points
The more balls disappear in one move, the higher the reward:
| Line Length | Points |
|---|---|
| 5 | 5 |
| 6 | 11 |
| 7 | 18 |
| 8 | 26 |
| 9 | 35 |
Long lines, intersections, and clearing several lines in one move produce a better result, so it is important not just to close the first available line of five, but to prepare the board ahead of time.
