[edit] Gameplay

The gameplay in Lumines II is very similar to its predecessor, Lumines. The object is still to move blocks of four different colored squares across the board; while trying to create a single square of the same colour. This all must be done before a "timeline" crosses the screen deleting the squares that you make. Deleting four or more squares will add a bonus multiplier to your score. (Refer to the Gameplay section of Lumines for more details).

Q Entertainment has announced that there will be no Infrastructure gameplay in "Lumines II". The game is visually similar to Lumines Live during both gameplay and in the menus.
