The method comprises displaying a first game board arrangement having a plurality of game objects each having one or more characteristics, information on said game board arrangement and said game objects being stored in said at least one memory. The method also comprises determining a selection of a first game object in dependence on a user input received via a user interface and in dependence on the stored information on said game board arrangement. The method comprises executing an algorithm to determine if said user input is such that a pointer has been moved by at least a threshold distance and if so moving at least said game objects in dependence on said user input to provide an updated game board arrangement. The updated game board arrangement is displayed.
