Fires can light adjacent grass on fire.

The selected ability occurs when the bars at the bottom of the screen touch. You can speed the bars up with the Speed Up Turn Timer button once you have decided what ability/direction you will use.

You can select between three abilities:

- Move: Move one square in selected direction and turn dirt into grass.
- Dash: Move as far in one direction as you can turning all grass into dirt.
- Sleep: Do nothing and pass your turn.
