About

One rule. Drag to move, flick to turn. Fill every gap, and it's done. tiles. is a puzzle game about fitting scattered pieces perfectly into a board. Three kinds of board: square, triangle and hexagon. Change the shape, and the same idea of filling a board asks you to think in a whole new way. Over 2,000 stages: from small boards solved with three pieces to large ones built from twelve. The difficulty rises gradually. Simple controls: drag a piece to move it, and flick to rotate it. Pieces can't be flipped. Rankings: solve a stage to see where you place among everyone who solved it. Rooms: make a room with friends or family and compete on a ranking of your own. Invite them by QR code or password. Free, no ads: every stage is free to play, with nothing in the way.
