Hey man, the object of the game is to leave juan with the last marble. to beat that level, take 2 from the bottom row first...you have to leave him with certain groupings of marbles in different rows! like he said, 1,2,3 1,4,5 1,6,7.... or leave him with evens on two different rows like 4,4 2,2 6,6 etc.. if you got anymore questions, im more than willing to help you out!
~by the way, on level 3, there are alot of stages, the farthest i've gotten is stage 22!

What sort of strategy does it take to beat him at higher stages? What setups work? When there's smaller number of pearls it's quite easy to set him up to lose but with larger numbers of pearls I keep getting stuck.
