About

Tintlings

Features
Read full description

Tintlings is a relaxing puzzle drawn in ink and pop-art colors. PLACE AND MERGE Drag pieces onto the board. Three touching critters of the same kind merge into the next color — right where you placed your piece: blue, green, yellow, coral… and finally the Light, which bursts and clears everything around it. Full rows and columns disappear too. SATISFYING Every fill is drawn live: ink spreads like watercolor, hatching appears stroke by stroke, pop-art dots pop in. Critters follow your finger with their eyes, bounce, cheer and splash paint. Cascades multiply your whole move. MODES • Classic — no time pressure, saved after every move • Exercises — 80 thought-provoking puzzles; easy, medium and hard are three different puzzles • Sweeper — uncover tiles; a critter's color tells how many ink blots are around. Relaxed or against the clock COME BACK EVERY DAY Keep your fire streak in the calendar and watch your Tint IQ grow as you play better. Game Center leaderboards and achievements, 20 languages, iPhone and iPad. Optional one-time purchase: “No ads” removes ads forever and unlocks every bonus (second chance, new pieces, extra moves, streak saves) for free.
