ANOMALY: Break the Pattern

Every board hides a rule. Your job: find the tiles that don't follow it.

ANOMALY is a pattern-recognition puzzle that trains your eye to see what doesn't belong. No timer pressure. No tutorial dumps. Just you, a grid of tiles, and a hidden pattern waiting to be cracked.

HOW IT PLAYS
Each level shows a board where most tiles follow a hidden rule — and a few don't. Tap the ones that break the pattern. But choose carefully: every wrong tap costs a heart. Run out and you'll watch a quick ad or spend a hint to keep going. Three stars demands a flawless solve.

The twist: the number of anomalies is hidden too. Discovering how many there are is part of the puzzle.

SIX TIERS, 1,200 LEVELS
★ AWAKEN — 5×5 boards, two simple axes. The training ground.
★ ATTUNE — 6×6 boards, digits enter the mix.
★ READ — 7×7 boards, rules begin to overlap.
★ DECIPHER — 7×7 boards, deeper complexity.
★ UNRAVEL — 8×8 boards, rules stack.
★ MASTERWORK — 9×9 boards, up to 12 anomalies, seven layered rules.

200 procedurally generated levels per tier. Every puzzle is deterministic — replay any level and the board is identical. No two players will see the same path through ANOMALY in the same order.
