Tile matching

BreakTiles

Match the free tiles. Shatter the stack.

Tiles are stacked into shapes: a kite, a bridge, an island, a tall keep. A tile is free when nothing sits on it and its left or right side is open. Tap two free tiles that match and they shatter. Match again fast to build a chain, and clear every tile to win.

FAQ

Questions

Is BreakTiles free?

Yes. No ads, no account and nothing to buy.

Which tiles can I take?

A tile is free when nothing sits on top of it and its left or right side is open. Blocked tiles look dim. Tap two free tiles that match to clear them.

What do bombs, wilds and frozen tiles do?

Match the two bombs and they blast a nearby pair too. A wild matches any plain tile, and the other wild becomes that tile's twin. A frozen tile can't be taken until you've cleared the number of pairs on its badge.

Can every game be won?

Yes. Every deal is built in reverse from the empty layout, so it can always be cleared. You can still paint yourself into a corner, which is what Undo, Hint and Shuffle are for. Shuffle keeps the board clearable.

What is the daily layout?

Everyone plays the same layout and tiles each day. Clear it to keep your streak, and share your time with hints, shuffles and undos.

Is it colour-blind friendly?

Yes. Each tile reads by its shape: numbers in three suits marked with a dot, a leaf or waves, plus nine outlined pictures. Colour is only an extra cue.

Do I need to download anything?

No. BreakTiles runs in your browser on a phone, tablet or computer. It is also part of the Break Board Games app for iPhone, iPad and Android, coming soon.
