Triangles
Read full descriptionHide full description
Triangles fall from the top, move them and rotate so that sides match with triangles below. When two sides match, both triangles permanantly set to that color. When four or more triangles of the same color are together they disappear and you get points. Sounds easy right? It is, and if you want a nice puzzle game to keep your brain busy it's perfect. But, you'll quickly see that there are many ways to score massive points by joining more than four triangles together! It's simple to play and fun to master. Game modes: Battle - Race to clear triangles and score points as rows rise from the bottom. The speed increases every level. Classic - Score as many points as possible. The speed increases every level. Zen - Stress-free mode with no speed increases Powers - Strategically place the powers to benefit you the most. The speed increases every level. Shapes - Clear the shape with as few triangles as possible. The speed increases every level. Tips: You get more points for clearing more triangles at once. The more you risk, the more points you'll get. Feedback: Please contact us with any issues and we'll try to fix them quickly.

Pentatrix is a challenge that looks easy enough to underestimate and sharp enough to punish that mistake. Five triangles fall, twist, bounce, block each other, and turn every lazy move into a problem you have to solve later. If you want a puzzle that stays polite, this is not it. If you want a game that dares you to master its angles, Pentatrix is waiting. THE GAME Pentatrix rethinks falling-block puzzles with triangular pieces. Each piece is built from five triangles, creating shapes that do not behave the way your brain expects at first. Lines, gaps, angles, and falling directions all matter. The rules are clean, but the board gets complicated fast. Clear rows, survive the increasing speed, and learn how to place pieces before the geometry turns against you. CHALLENGES Build your own Challenge with multiple level and changing the rules that force you and your friends to adapt quickly. Different boards, start positions, fall directions, resolve rules, and end conditions create focused puzzles with their own rhythm. All sharable with your friends and enemies. Some challenges are about speed. Some are about precision. Some ask you to think several moves ahead just to keep the board alive.
