## What is Tessera?

A calm block puzzle with no ads, no pop-ups and no timers nagging you.

Drag pieces onto the 10×10 grid. Fill a row or column and it bursts. Clear several at once for Double, Triple, Quad and the big one: Tessera!

WHY TESSERA
• No ads, ever. No pop-ups, no energy, no waiting.
• Plays fully offline: planes, subways, no signal.
• No account and no data collected. Everything stays on your iPhone.
• A Game Center leaderboard for your high score.

FOUR WAYS TO PLAY
• Classic: endless play, beat your high score
• Zen: no game over; the board clears when you're stuck
• Daily Challenge: one puzzle a day, the same for everyone
• Timed: a 3-minute sprint (Pro)

MAKE IT YOURS
8 hand-built themes, from Neon Night to Deep Ocean, and 4 original soundtracks that build with your combos: celesta, ambient, lo-fi and synthwave.
