Inserting elements
The main principle is still the same: a player tries to find a long sequence of tiles and
performs an action to obtain some points. But one thing is quite different: he can now
affect the array by adding elements to it. This game mode can be called
Inserting
.
The game shows a tile; its type is generated at random or is loaded from a special
list prepared by game designer. The player should decide where to place this tile to
receive maximum profit. He taps the screen and the tile replaces the item in the array
that was tapped by the player's finger. Then the roll call function is called to make its
calculations. By default, the passive array should be used in such games, but the act-
ive one may be used as well; it can make the game more spectacular and fast paced.
