## Description

World 15 just landed — Cairn. A new objective: reach the marked stones, not empty the board. Plus animated tutorials and ambient wildlife.

Tessera is a puzzle game about stillness and sequence. Each level is a small hex board. Slide a tile until it hits another; match three of a color to clear them.

One hundred hand-curated levels across ten worlds — every one solved by the game's own solver before it shipped. No guessing. No luck. No timers. Just a puzzle and a quiet place to think.

Thirty levels are free. The rest unlock with one purchase.

FEATURES
• 100 hand-curated levels across 10 worlds
• Every level provably solvable — verified by an IDA* solver
• Sliding hex tiles with cascading chain merges
• Pre-charged tiles and chain annihilation
• Rewarding bonus puzzles for clean clears
• Dark mode (paper by candlelight)
• Offline play · cloud sync across devices
• Keyboard shortcuts for desktop play

QUIET PAPER
Tessera is designed around a "Quiet Paper" aesthetic — near-monochrome ivory and charcoal, one muted accent per world, humanist typography, no drop shadows, no particles, no clutter. Ten worlds, ten colour moods.

NO DARK PATTERNS
• One-time purchase. No ads, no subscriptions, no loot boxes.
• No stamina systems, no "wait 4 hours" timers, no energy meters.
• No tracking, no third-party analytics.
• Your progress is yours. Delete it any time in Settings.

THE WORLDS
W1 Threshold — Learn the slide. Learn the chain.
W2 Ember — Three colours. Richer chains.
W3 Tide — Four colours. Deeper reads.
W4 Ashwood — Think before you slide.
W5 Helix — Five colours. Wider grid. The climb begins.
W6 Prism — Dense lattices. Longer chains.
W7 Aurora — Long chains. Rolling clears.
W8 Halcyon — Denser boards. No escape.
W9 Quartz — Six colours. Every cluster counts.
W10 Obsidian — The wall. Everything learned.

Designed for short sessions. Built for quiet.
