Simple to learn. Surprisingly deep to master. Daxtle is a beautifully minimalist puzzle game that will twist your brain in the best way. Slide colored blocks across clever, irregular grids to land each one on its matching target โ€” sounds easy, right? Think again. Here's the twist: every block has a fixed direction โ€” it can only ever move one way. A single swipe moves all blocks sharing that direction at once, and a moving block will push anything in its path. One wrong swipe can ruin it all. Think ahead and plan your chain reactions. Made a mistake? Double-tap to undo โ€” anytime, as many times as you need. WHY YOU'LL LOVE IT - 85+ hand-crafted levels across 6 chapters โ€” each one a unique, satisfying puzzle to solve - Challenge mode: race against a 90-second master timer โ€” each solve adds bonus time.
