About Rotate Tiles
Rotate Tiles is a spatial puzzle where each tap turns a tile a quarter turn clockwise. On higher levels a tap also turns the four tiles around it, so every move has side effects. Make all the arrows point upwards using as few taps as you can.
How to play
- Tap a tile to rotate it clockwise by 90 degrees.
- From level 31 each tap also rotates the tiles above, below, left and right of it.
- Make every arrow point up.
Tips and strategy
- Four taps on one tile bring it back to where it started, so never tap a tile more than three times.
- Fix the top row first, then work downwards.
- The order of taps does not matter, only how many each tile receives.
Levels, stars and XP
Finish a level to earn one to three stars and XP towards your player level. Replay any unlocked level to improve your stars. From level 151 the game enters endless mode, where each level is a remix of an earlier one with fresh colours and a slightly higher difficulty.
