Marathon is a planet with custom set of challenges created by ShineStreet in mid 2018. The planet received several updates to its challenges and look.
This planet consists of 46 challenges instead of the regular seven. These include one move, luck-based, turn-based, timed and untimed challenges.
The extreme versions of the original challenge objectives of the game are predominantly present in this planet.

Notes
- As of August 14th, 2023, this planet is in active development.
- Marathon's 25th, 26th and 30th challenges require the game to be able to recognize the match type that's needed to create Ice Gems.
- The 13th challenge also includes Coal Gems.
- The following challenges will NOT display your full progress in real time but you still have to fulfill every objective in those.
- The 6th challenge will only display the number of red gems that are cleared. In this case, you can take The Tube as your reference point. Once it stops going upwards, try clearing different-coloured gems.
- The 27th challenge doesn't display the number of moves you have to complete the challenge within. You still have the number of moves given to you.
- The 24th challenge will only display the number of Yellow Gems you clear. The challenge won't end unless you match 8 orange gems with a single move.
- The 41st challenge will only display the number of Flame Gems you create. You still have to create the specified number of Lightning Gems.
- The 8th, 40th and 45th challenges don't display the number of cascades piling up during gameplay. Memorizing the total number of cascades is the way to go in those challenges.
- Creating Supernova Gems on the 46th challenge will only contribute to the number of Flame Gems that are on the game board.
Changelog
- Added one new challenge (challenge 2), balanced the duration-to-difficulty ratio of existing challenges (challenges 4, 9, 10, 11, 12, 14 and 41 to name a few)
- Challenge 7 no longer has a move limit but the number of cascades that need to be achieved has now been increased from 8 to 9.
- Challenge 19's nine minute time limit has now been replaced with the move limit count of 50. The number of Coal Gems you need to destroy has also been reduced from 170 to 100.
- Challenge 24 now has a ten minute time limit.
- Changed the Eclipse challenge, though this change may or may not be final. For more information, keep an eye on my community posts.
