How to Play: Select a valid tile and find it's matching pair. Tiles are locked if they have neighbors on both sides, or a tile sitting on top of them. Once a tile is unlocked you can match it with another unlocked pair. Special tiles, Seasons and Flowers are wild, and you can match any Season to any Season (E.g. Win matches with Sun).
