Challenge your puzzle solving abilities by unscrambling images of colorful and interesting repeating patterns. Pattern Fun includes several game variations to keep things interesting: (1) Block puzzle - freely swapping any two pieces (2) Slide Puzzle - rearrange tiles by shifting them one at a time to the open space. (3) Puzzle with rotation - pieces may be both swapped and rotated. (4) Stretch Puzzle - pieces have variable sizes, and are stretched to fill the space. Drag pieces to swap. Each of the above game variations can be played in varying sizes, allowing you to play at an easier or more challenging level of difficulty. In addition to all the built-in patterns, you can also import unlimited new patterns that you create with the Pattern Artist (or Pattern Artist Free) app. A "Best Times" list and statistics are tracked for each game variation, so you can challenge yourself, or you can turn off the clock for a more relaxed game. Pattern Fun takes up very little space on your device, is ad-free, and best of all, is completely free!

Are you ready for a unique adventure like no other? Oxytone invites you to explore the depths of your mind while offering a tranquil escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life for those seeking relaxation. For more determined players, there are 99 challenges, colorful themes to unlock, and 12 meticulously designed maps. Oxytone is the ultimate puzzle game, equally easy to learn and challenging to master. Strive for the highest scores by creating the longest paths and achieving impressive combinations. Every move matters, and success depends on strategy and planning. You can discard tiles that don't fit your plan, but this reduces your pool of available tiles. To refresh it, you must fill tiles by guiding paths through them six times, deepening the mechanics further. Sound is an integral part of Oxytone, so I recommend playing with headphones. This will immerse you even deeper into the game. The sound design has been crafted with great care to create a unique and relaxing atmosphere, yet it can also deliver powerful moments when needed.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Pattern Fun at none against Oxytone's 1. Pattern Fun also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 75%) and rating (4.8 vs 4.5). Oxytone's advantage is update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 47 months) and ratings volume (97 vs 6). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
