What it is

Rangoli Match is a calm, colourful puzzle for one player. The board is eight squares by eight, filled with six kinds of festival tile: clay diyas, lotuses, marigolds, stars, mango leaves and bangles. Each one has its own colour and its own shape, so they are easy to tell apart. Swap two tiles next to each other to make a line of three or more and they clear, the tiles above fall into place, and new lines can set off chains.

There are 60 levels, ten for each festival: Diwali, Holi, Pongal, Onam, Baisakhi and Navratri. Every level has its own goal and a set number of moves. Sometimes you need a score, sometimes a number of one kind of tile, sometimes you must break the rangoli chalk squares, and sometimes you must bring golden diyas all the way down to the bottom row. Make longer matches and you get fireworks that clear big parts of the board.

How to play

  1. Swap to match

    Swipe a tile towards its neighbour, or tap one tile and then the one beside it. If the swap makes a line of three or more of the same tile, they clear.

  2. Watch the goal

    The goal for the level sits at the top, with the moves you have left. Reach it before the moves run out. Moves left over turn into bonus points.

  3. Make fireworks

    Four in a row makes a Phuljhadi that clears its row or column. An L or T shape makes an Anaar that clears the 3×3 around it. Five in a row makes a Chakri that clears every tile of one kind.

  4. Earn stars

    Finish the goal for one star; score higher for two or three. A star opens the next level on the festival map.

Good to know

Stuck? There’s help

If you don’t move for a few seconds, two tiles wiggle to show a good swap. If no swap is possible at all, the board shuffles itself.

Gentle on the eyes

If your device is set to reduce motion, the tiles move without the sparkles and big animations.
