About Patterns
Patterns offers a wonderfully relaxing escape into a world of magical creativity and gentle logic. The soothing combination of nature elements and satisfying puzzle mechanics makes every completed pattern feel rewarding. Whether you have five minutes or an hour, Ellie's enchanting adventure is the perfect cozy companion.
How to Play
Click on a tile to place down the selected element. Click on an element icon to change the element. Click on a shape icon to change the shape. In Stretch Mode, you can stretch shapes by dragging the arrows.
Tips
Start with simpler shapes and elements to understand the core mechanics. Click on element icons to switch between grass, fire, and clouds based on what the pattern needs. Use shape icons to change formations before placing tiles. Take your time examining the target pattern carefully before making your first move. Remember that Stretch Mode is optional but incredibly helpful for filling larger spaces efficiently.
Advanced Strategies
Once comfortable, experiment with Stretch Mode by dragging arrows to create elongated shapes that cover more area with fewer placements. Plan several moves ahead by identifying repeating elements in complex patterns, which often follow symmetrical rules. Challenge yourself to complete levels using the minimum number of tile placements for a more satisfying and efficient solve.
