Tile Connect
Link matching tiles with a path of two turns or less.
Today's board
How to play
Tap two tiles with the same picture. If a line can join them with at most two turns, both disappear. The line can't pass through other tiles, but it can run around the outside of the board.
Tiles right next to each other always connect. As the board empties, longer paths open up.
If no pair is left to connect, the remaining tiles are shuffled for you. Your record is the time it takes to clear the board. Lower is better.

Tips & strategy
- Start at the edges. A path can run around the outside of the board, so border tiles connect easily.
- Two matching tiles in the same row or column with nothing between them always connect. Look for those first.
- Before clearing a pair, check whether one of its tiles is the only thing blocking another pair. Clearing in the right order opens long paths.
- Stuck boards are shuffled for you, but each shuffle costs thinking time. Keep a pair in reserve near the edge for later.
