After Firefox has restarted, play Xultris by clicking "Tools" - "Xultris". Have fun!
When Xultris starts, click "1 Player" to start the game or press "n". Use the left and right cursor keys to move the blocks left and right. Cursor up rotates the block and cursor down moves the block down faster or immediately.
