- TILES
-
- Here's a little game that is almost identical to Activision's Shanghai
- except much simpler, and although graphically pretty and inventive, uses
- fewer colors than Shanghai.
-
- There are very few options. A board filled with tiles will draw itself.
-
- The object is to find matching pairs of tiles and click on one, then click
- on the other. The pair will disappear. Keep doing this until you have
- gotten rid of all the tiles.
-
- The closer to the center of the playing area, the higher the tiles are
- stacked. Look at the shadows cast by the higher tiles to tell which ones
- are "higher" than others.
-
- In order to remove a tile it must not have another tile next to it either
- on the left or on the right. Any tile that is surrounded on the left AND
- on the right by two other tiles cannot be removed until at least one of its
- neighbors is. Well, you'll get the idea.
-
- The only option I could find (there was no documentation with the game) was
- that clicking on the blue background and not on a tile would bring back the
- last pair of tiles you had removed... in case you mess up and have to go
- backwards a bit.
