Fit Board shows the complete layout inside the available width. Keyboard: Tab enters the board, arrow keys move between tiles, and Enter or Space activates a tile.
Your first matching pair
A tile is free when nothing covers it and at least one horizontal side is open. Select two free tiles with the same face; flowers can match other flowers, and seasons can match other seasons. Clear all 144 tiles to finish. Hint highlights an available pair, Undo returns the last removed pair, and Shuffle rearranges remaining faces without promising a solution. Use Readable Zoom on a small screen to see larger tiles and scroll the board.
Try the 56-tile Easy board for a shorter game, or use the Turtle strategy guide to compare what different moves unlock. New Game changes the deal; Replay Same Board lets you try a different approach to the current deal.
