Play Linez at https://varten.com/

I recently ported a classic puzzle game Linez from Flash to WebGL using pixi.js. It’s free to play at https://varten.com/ on any modern mobile or desktop browser. The actual gameplay animation is a lot smoother than the GIF shown above.

Linez is a game with great depth and deceptively simple rules: align five or more same-colored tiles horizontally, vertically, or diagonally to earn points. On each turn, three new tiles are placed at random positions. Try to get as many point as possible before no more moves are available.

The site is ad-free and requires no account registration to play. Have fun and happy holidays!
