A block puzzle with a desi heart.

How it plays

Drag, drop and clear the lines.

1. 01

   Drag three pieces

   Place each piece on the 8×8 board. Pieces do not rotate, so where you put them is the whole puzzle.

2. 02

   Clear rows and columns

   A full row or column clears. Clear several at once, and keep clearing, for a bigger score.

3. 03

   Light the diyas

   A diya tile bursts when its line clears and takes the tiles around it. The game ends when nothing fits.

What makes it desi

Just you, the board and a cup of chai.

Meenakari tiles

Seven enamel colours, each with its own motif, from lotus to peacock feather.

The tiffin

Stuck with an awkward piece? Tuck it into your tiffin and use it later.

A fair dealer

The game never hands you three pieces that cannot be placed.

Tabla, sitar and santoor

Music for every move, and a spoken “Wah!” or “Shabash!” when you play well.

Your game is saved

No timers

Play at your own pace. An evening reminder for the Daily Thali is on by default, and easy to turn off in Settings.
