From above:

"The talismans cannot be matched with any item, including a Supercrystal. This can cause them to be a detriment, even though they are the objective of the game."

Because of this, I've found that on higher levels when there are obstacles that need to be removed from the board in order to allow items to drop to the bottom, it is better not make the items drop until you've cleard the obstacles first. Working from the bottom up or not removing the obstacles directly below the talismans until you've cleard the lower obstacles. This is not always possible, but you'll use fewer tools if you can do it. I find this game to be a tool waster on higher levels becuase the talismans get in your way and can make it almost impossible to remove obstacles. You're better off playing the Excavations game if you don't have a lot of extra tools.
