Fluorite is your go-to puzzle game for a quick break from reality. Rotate the pipes to combine the lights and make an order out of chaos. Download our immensely satisfying and super fun game and try it yourself! Fluorite is extremely addictive, but in a soothing kind of way. The game starts easy and intuitive in the beginning but it gets more challenging later on. How to play? You can rotate tiles with a simple tap. The goal is to connect each of the end tiles to one of the available sources to turn on the right lights. At first, all you have to worry about is lining up tiles with their associated sources but it quickly gets more interesting when you start missing the light sources you need. http://www.fluorite.app/ https://www.facebook.com/fluoritegame/ info@fluorite.app
