Pretty Tiles drops you into a puzzle challenge you can start in a couple of seconds. The core of it is puzzle and match 3. You can jump in for two minutes or lose an hour to it; either works.
About Pretty Tiles
In this HTML5 match puzzle game you should tap on three tiles with the same shapes to destroy them. If you match three labeled tiles in the specified time you’ll get a reward. You have three options that can help you: - Undo your move - Shuffle Tiles - Match a group of tiles
How to play Pretty Tiles
Press play and the first round teaches you the rest. The full control mapping is in the table below and takes a moment to skim. It is built tall rather than wide — comfortable one-handed on a phone, centred and uncropped on a monitor. Take the first run as practice and the second one seriously.
Controls
| Input | Action |
|---|---|
| Mouse | Select and drag pieces |
| Left click | Confirm a move |
On mobile: Tap and swipe directly on the screen. The game is built for portrait, so you can play one-handed without rotating your phone.
Why it is worth playing
Plenty of puzzle games want a tutorial and ten minutes of setup before anything happens. Pretty Tiles does not — it is playable from the first second. That is a rarer quality than it sounds.
