Tesserae
Trails
Each tile is a pane of luminous glass. Jump one over a neighbor and onto a third — the middle melts away and your color blends into where it lands. Mix the primaries down to a single glowing piece.
Something vast is on its way: a mystery campaign sealed behind a special puzzle — win a match in the tournament to earn your attempt at breaking it open. Plus the Daily Puzzle goes social: every player worldwide gets the same freshly generated board each day, and a new share button lets you send your stars and tile mosaic to friends.
How to play, step by step
Skipped the tutorial on first launch? It can't be replayed in the app — so here it is, every lesson preserved. Watch each glass tile leap, absorb, and blend.
First Jump
Tap a tile to pick it up, then tap the square two spaces away. It hops over its neighbor and absorbs it!
Every Direction
Jumps go up, down, sideways, and diagonally — always two squares in a straight line.
Mix It
Land on a different color to mix into it. Red landing on Blue makes Purple!
Primary School
Red, Yellow, and Blue are primaries — any primary can hop over any other and swallow it whole.
Chain Reaction
Exactly one tile must remain. Chain your jumps so no tile gets stranded — Undo and Restart are always there for you.
Mixed Manners
Mixed tiles are picky: they only hop over tiles that contain every one of their colors.
Peel the Gray
Gray holds all three colors. Jumping over it peels your color out — peel it apart, then build it back!
Reach for the Stars
Stars reward efficiency! Solve a level in its minimum number of moves to earn all three.
The seven glass colors
Three primaries blend into three secondaries — and all three together make gray.
