Welcome to Chess Tiles! The goal of the game is to clear all the pieces, three layers in all. You can play it on your own or get some help from the brain! Each piece has rules about which locations can be used next. The number pieces reach locations exactly that number of squares away in any row, column, or diagonal. The chess pieces behave like in chess but, other than the knight, they must move all the way to the edge. There is one special piece that is discovered when you clear all pieces in the game past a layer. That special piece can reach any location on the board.

Dive into the vibrant, mind-bending world of Bottle Jam! In this unique twist on the water sort puzzle genre, you’ll find yourself in a grid of colorful bottles, each filled with a mix of liquids. Your task? Arrange and organize the colors to bring harmony to every bottle! Swipe to move bottles horizontally or vertically within the grid, strategically positioning them to set up color transfers. When two adjacent bottles have the same color at the top—and there’s enough room in one of them—the liquid will pour over, merging the colors together. Your ultimate goal is to collect all of the same color in one bottle, clearing it from the grid and advancing your progress. With each level, new challenges arise: limited space, tricky color combinations, and a growing number of bottles make each puzzle even more satisfying to solve. Perfect for puzzle lovers who crave something fresh, Bottle Jam combines strategic planning with relaxing gameplay for an addictive, brain-teasing experience. Features Strategic Puzzle Gameplay: Swipe bottles to move them within the grid and carefully plan each color pour. Unique Mechanics: Fresh twist on water sort puzzles—moving bottles adds a whole new layer of strategy. Challenging Levels: Tackle increasingly complex puzzles with more colors and limited moves to keep your skills sharp. Vibrant Design: Enjoy beautifully animated liquids and satisfying pour effects that make each level visually engaging. Can you master the ultimate color sort and clear every level? Jump into Bottle Jam and start pouring your way to victory!

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Bottle Jam! at none against ChessTiles's 2. Bottle Jam! also leads on update cadence (daily vs every 2 months) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.1). ChessTiles's advantage is ads (none vs shown). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
