2024 Apple Design Award Finalist! Welcome to Finity: a thoughtful, handcrafted matching game. A few rules lead to endless strategy, flow, and exciting close calls. 1. Tiles wrap around. 2. Slide rows or columns to match 3. 3. Moves are limited, so think carefully! Climb the leaderboards as you level up your skills to unlock challenging special tiles, power ups, and new themes to suit your mood in Classic Mode.
