Swappies is a competitive puzzle game that puts your strategic thinking to the test. With three thrilling modes — Classic, Fast, and Power — every match is a new battle of wits. Classic Mode → Take 60 seconds per turn to carefully plan your moves on an 11×11 board. Fast Mode → Just 15 seconds per turn. Think fast, play faster. Power Mode → No timer, pure strategy. Take your time to dominate the board. Form powerful patterns — X-shapes, Plus signs, right angles, vertical, horizontal and diagonal lines to get more swappies and control the board. But here’s the twist: in Swappies, you don’t just play your own tiles… you can swap with your opponents. Outsmart rivals by flipping their swappies into your own, and turning the tide of battle at any moment. Swappies delivers a fresh take on puzzle strategy — and it just might be the first true multiplayer tile-matching game. Beta Note: Swappies is fully playable and already competitive, but we’re still evolving the experience. Join now, test your strategy, and help shape the future of the game. Download Swappies today and prove to the world that you’re the ultimate swapper!
