Our take on TILE
The store presentation emphasizes relaxation and a large amount of tile-based content, but gives little sense of how the puzzle rules change across the five episodes. The structure is clear, while the depth and progression of the individual challenges remain less defined.
What is TILE?

Its structure includes five episodes, with 15 levels in each episode. The presentation uses a minimalist interface and a relaxing soundtrack. The game also features dozens of levels with different puzzle types and thousands of tiles.
