Best Fiends Cheats and Tips

When there is a diamond on the board create a match near it to give yourself the best chance of collecting it.

Keep in mind that any damage which is the result of 'overkill' will carry over and apply to the next enemy that appears.

Even if you lose you will keep ALL the items (diamonds, meteor mites, and keys) that you collected during a stage so when you think you are going to lose a stage use your remaining moves to collect as many of these items as possible as you will retain them.

Always look to create matches with tiles that match your fiends' element as these will cause more damage. Matching tiles to your fiends' element will also fill up their power meter enabling them to use their special item.
