About this game

TAP to rotate tiles or DRAG AND DROP to swap tiles on the board. Your score goes up or down as you change the board.

Each tile edge has an image in 1 of 3 colors, 1 of 3 fillings, and 1 of 3 shapes.

- INSIDE the board, you score 1 point for matching color, shape, and/or filling of images on FACING edges. Each pair of facing edges scores between 0 and 3 points.

- The same is true for ADJACENT edges on adjacent squares on the OUTSIDE of the board.

For example: For a 3x3 board, there are 12 interior facing edges, and 8 exterior adjacent edge pairs (2 on each side of the board), which means that the theoretical maximum is 60 points.

UNRANKED GAMES: A game board is randomly generated. The maximum possible score for the board appears. The game ends when the time runs out or you stop the game. You can replay the game as many times as you want. Only your best submitted score is saved.

RANKED GAMES: Play on a 3 minute, 3x3 random board. In ranked games, you have a 10th SPARE SQUARE to swap in/out of the board. The maximum possible score does not appear. Your final score is compared to other players who play the same board. Your rank changes as other players submit scores. You cannot replay ranked games.
