Control Shift

Recolor a shifting set of control tiles to pull matching regions into line and unify the board before your moves run out.

Tutorial: Control Shift

How to Play:

  1. Each turn, you control a small random set of highlighted tiles instead of one fixed corner.
  2. Pick a palette color to repaint every controlled tile at once.
  3. Each controlled tile also pulls in any touching tiles that matched its original color before the repaint.
  4. After the move, your control zone jumps to a new random set of tiles somewhere else on the board.
  5. Keep steering the board toward a single shared color before you run out of moves.
  6. Par score shows the puzzle's estimated best route.

Pro Tips:

  • Look for one color that helps multiple control tiles at the same time.
  • Because the zone moves every turn, set up future anchors instead of only chasing the biggest immediate gain.
  • A color that seems small now can be strong if it aligns distant regions for the next shift.
  • When the control tiles already match, switch to a new color that opens more board coverage elsewhere.
