Line 98 Standard: A Nostalgic Twist on a Timeless Puzzle Game

Step back in time with Line 98 Standard, the retro version of the iconic Color Lines 1998. Originally created by a Russian developer in the 90s, this classic board game has been an offline favorite on PCs since its integration into Windows 98. Known as Line 98 Classic or simply Color Lines 1998, this game offers a nostalgic experience that many who grew up with Windows 98 will fondly remember.

The game features a 9x9 grid where colorful balls are scattered randomly. Players can replace smaller balls with a larger one by dragging a ball of the same color onto them. However, if left unchecked, these small balls will grow over time, filling up the grid. The objective is to create lines of five or more balls of the same color either horizontally, vertically, or diagonally. Forming such a line triggers an explosion, clearing the grid and earning points. The challenge lies in strategic rearrangement to maximize your score.

Originally released in the 90s, Line 98 quickly became a sensation among office workers and casual gamers alike. Its addictive yet calming gameplay made it a perfect way to pass the time during breaks or while waiting. Whether you're looking for a quick distraction or a mental challenge, Line 98 Standard offers both.

Download this version and relive the magic of the past, or introduce it to a new generation of gamers. Enjoy the nostalgia and the thrill of creating those satisfying color lines!
