Lift tiles from a layered pile into a tray of seven, and clear them three alike at a time.
About Triple Tile
A pyramid of picture tiles is stacked in overlapping layers, and only a tile with nothing resting on it may be taken. Each tile lifted goes into a tray of seven slots; three matching tiles in the tray vanish together, and a tray filled with no three alike ends the level. It resembles a solitaire version of mahjong with a strict budget attached, and the budget is the whole game: every tile taken without a partner in view occupies a slot that may be needed later. The deeper levels add layers and faces. Each level is built so that it can be cleared, and three kinds of assistance — undo, shuffle and return — are rationed with care.
How to Play
Tap any tile that is not covered by another to move it into the tray. Three identical tiles in the tray clear at once. If all seven slots fill without a match, the level is lost. Undo takes back a move, Shuffle rearranges the faces, and Return lifts three tiles out of the tray into a holding row.
💡 Tips & Strategy
Treat the tray as five slots, not seven. The last two are an emergency reserve, and a tray that routinely runs at six has no room to absorb the one tile you are forced to take. Before every tap, ask how many unmatched faces will be sitting in the tray afterwards; if the answer is more than three, look harder for a better tile.
Take tiles in threes wherever you can see them. The ideal tap is a tile whose two partners are already free, or already in the tray, so the triple completes in two or three moves and the slots come straight back. A lone face whose partners are buried deep in the pile is the tile that fills trays, however convenient it looks.
Dig where the pile is tallest. Tiles on high layers cover several tiles each, so clearing the summit of a tall stack reveals more choices than clearing the edges of a flat one. More free tiles on the board means more chances of completing triples without committing a slot on speculation.
Ration the assistance. Return is the most powerful of the three, because it empties three slots in a single stroke and those tiles stay playable in the holding row — keep it for the moment the tray is genuinely in danger. Undo is best kept for a mistaken tap, and Shuffle for a board where no face has two free partners at all.
