3D Tile Puzzle

Chain-reaction rotation puzzles descend from the classic lights-out family, where pressing one light toggles its neighbours. Translating that mechanic into three dimensions gives every tile sixteen orientations and every tap a visible ripple: neighbours follow the tapped block a beat later, so each move plays out like a small mechanical wave.

Every deal is generated by applying random moves to the solved board, so a solution always exists — the game shows you the scramble happening live before your first turn.

A corner tile is turned by just three different taps, an edge tile by four, a centre tile by five. Because overlaps grow toward the middle, the edges and corners are the easiest places to reason without disturbing solved ground.

Clearing the border first keeps each interior tap from undoing your edge work. If a move breaks something you already fixed, the undo button rewinds it cleanly — experiments are cheap.

Each deal shows a par — the number of taps in a known efficient solution. Finishing at or under par earns three stars, and consecutive moves that set new tiles upright build a combo. Stuck on the last cross? Get a Hint pulses a tile that is guaranteed to keep you on a shortest path.
