Tiles & Vials

Tiles & Vials is a game about combining tiles to fight enemies. Push two matching tiles together to merge them into a higher-level tile and activate its effect, using the board to swing a sword, shoot a bow, raise a shield and perform other actions. Higher-level tiles have stronger effects, including piercing damage, crippling enemies and removing debuffs from your character. If the board jams, you must take a rest to clear it.

Build your loadout

As you explore the world and level up, you unlock more tiles and can mix and match any pair you have access to. You can choose from 10 unique tiles for your loadout. Artifacts can support purely offensive or defensive strategies, but your approach needs to account for the enemies you face.

Adapt to enemies

You encounter dozens of enemies across 4 regions and more than 40 levels. Foes use different approaches: some rely on brute force, others dodge your attacks, and some manipulate the board. The same tactics will not work in every encounter.

Artifacts and progression

You can unlock more than 50 artifacts to shape your build. They can manipulate the board, create a temporary advantage or enhance your next move. Find artifacts that strengthen your advantages or help address your weaknesses. Progress carries across runs, letting you try different builds in roguelike fashion.
