Tile BloomPlate II · How it plays

Plate II

Turn, match, bloom

The whole rule in three motions. One tap turns a tile; four matching corners make a flower bloom.

  1. Fig. 1

    Turn

    Tap a tile to turn it 90° clockwise. Long-press or right-click turns it back.

  2. Fig. 2

    Match

    Every corner holds a quarter of a flower. Where corners meet, all of them must match.

  3. Fig. 3

    Bloom

    Then a flower blooms there. Bloom every meeting point to finish the floor; fewer moves earn more stars, three at or under par.

Key to the plates

Six motifs

Each has its own colour and its own shape, so a match never depends on colour alone.

    • Instruments

      Tools of the floor

      Everything you need, nothing that rushes you.

    • Undo

      Take back the last turn.

    • Three hints

      Per floor. A hint turns one tile right and pins it, and lowers the best you can earn by one star.

    • Restart

      Begin the floor again from the start.

    • Saved

      Unfinished floors save themselves.
