How to play

1. Read the page. 81 glyphs, dealt at random. Look for shapes worth getting greedy about.
2. Declare your story. Whisper holds groups of 4+ (×1). Tale holds only 5+ (×2.5). Legend holds only 6+ (×6). The profile picks your multiplier and how much of the page goes onto the spin.
3. Arrange with 9 swaps. Tap a glyph, then a neighbour — they trade places. Any swap is legal; nothing clears. Undo is free. A group of the same glyph that meets your threshold lights up and holds. Groups just under your threshold show a ? — one swap from holding.
4. Turn the page. Everything not held tumbles and lands as something new. Glyphs landing beside a held formation join it. A brand-new formation earns another turn (max 3), and the turn reached multiplies the whole board.
5. The Reading. Each formation counts in sequence. Beat the chapter target to go deeper. Miss it and the book closes — but every page you earned is yours.

score = Σ size² × 10 × profile × turn
