Pythagoras Tiles

Features
Read full description

Pythagoras Tiles is a calm fill-in logic puzzle about coloring tile regions by deduction. At first, each board gives you only a few numbers and a small set of rules. Look closer, and the layout begins to explain itself. You choose a region because you can prove it belongs there, not because you guessed. Each certain step opens the next one, and the board slowly turns into a complete solution. This is not a puzzle game that rushes you. There is no timer, no pressure to act quickly, and no need to chase noisy rewards. It is built for the quiet satisfaction of understanding why a move is right. Play one stage during a short break, or settle in for a longer session and let the logic unfold at your own pace. The appeal is in the moment when your reasoning connects. Read the number clues. Compare the rules. Leave uncertain spaces alone until another region gives you the missing clue. Later stages ask you to combine multiple conditions, but each answer should still feel earned and understandable. You may enjoy Pythagoras Tiles if you like: - Logic puzzles where every answer has a reason - Number clues and clean deduction - Simple controls that keep the focus on thinking - Calm puzzle games without timer pressure - Stages that start approachable and grow into richer challenges Features - 300 stages - Japanese, English, Simplified Chinese, and Traditional Chinese support - No timer - Simple tap-based play - Compact stages for quick sessions and deeper boards for focused play Fill the regions, follow the clues, and enjoy the moment when the final tile makes the whole board feel inevitable. Pythagoras Tiles is made for players who want a polished, quiet, and genuinely thoughtful logic puzzle.
