Very beautiful Christmas layout!

Forget all about those match-3, mahjong, dominoes, and memory games,
Passage 4 beats them all!

Place tiles on the board to match the color or symbol of adjacent tiles to
create 'passages' from edge to edge.

### 1/5 — Bauernfang

*2025-12-04, version 3.1.2*

Spiel auf Zeit, nicht wie früher. Macht Werbung für die bezahlte Version, wo die weihnachts Edition nicht verfügbar ist.

### 5/5 — TOTALLY ADDICTIVE

*2020-12-15, version 3.1.2*

I wish I never found this game because it’s taking up ALL my free time (and some time when I should be doing something else). I am playing the free Christmas version now, which is great. I will be buying the full version.

### 5/5 — Passage

*2017-04-14, version 3.1.2*

Ein tolles Spiel . Sehr gute Steuerung. Nach dem Update noch besser

### 5/5 — Super Spiel

*2016-12-01, version 3.1.2*

Sehr schönes Spiel - macht viel Spass.

### 5/5 — Try this, then get the xl version to customize it to Christmas!

*2014-12-08, version 2.1.5*

I used to play this years ago on my computer, but had forgotten about it. I just found it today, and remembered my love of playing. But, I don't like the free version, so I got the paid version.....but then I found out that the xl version is customizable and switch can switch the tiles, background snow, AND Christmas music! I'm loving playing this game again!!(well the  longer paid version.)
