Candy Jar: Tilt & Match

Kesp Studio

About this game

Tilt the jar. Gravity does the rest.

Candy Jar is a match-3 puzzle with one move: turn the jar 90 degrees. The world
stays upright, the jar spins, and everything inside tumbles into a new shape.
Three or more of the same colour touching each other pop, the blocks above them
fall, and one good turn can set off a chain that clears half the board.

That is the whole control scheme. Two buttons, one thumb, no swiping and no
timers. Every level is a small question: which way do I turn this so the pieces
land where I need them?

WHAT YOU DO
- Turn left or right. The jar rotates, the blocks fall.
- Match 3 or more of the same colour, connected side by side.
- Watch the chains. Falling blocks land on new matches and keep going.
- Clear the level's goals before you run out of turns.

WHAT IS IN THE JAR
- Rockets — line up 5 of a colour and get a rocket. It fires along the row or
column it was born in, so the shape of your match decides its direction.
- Bombs — 7 in one group makes a bomb, and it takes out everything in a 3x3
square at once.
- Ice — frozen blocks need two hits. The first breaks the ice, the second
clears the block. A rocket blast goes straight through both.
- Crates — crates never match. The only way to open one is to pop a match right
next to it, which means planning a move you would not otherwise make.

FIFTY LEVELS, ALL PROVEN SOLVABLE
Every level was checked by a solver before it shipped. Not "probably possible" —
each one has a verified solution and a known minimum number of turns, and the
star targets are set from that number instead of guessed. There is no level in
this game that cannot be finished.

NO WORDS NEEDED
There is no text tutorial, because there is nothing to read. A hand shows you
the turn. When rockets, bombs, ice or crates appear for the first time, a short
silent demo plays the mechanic once, right at the moment the piece shows up on
your board. If you can see it, you can learn it — in any language, at any age.

BUILT FOR ONE HAND
Portrait. Offline. No account, no sign-up, nothing to connect. Pick it up for a
minute in a queue, put it down mid-level, come back later and it is exactly
where you left it.

Turn the jar. See what falls.
