Cleaner

Cleaner puts a fresh spin on the classic match-and-remove formula. Instead of just swapping tiles, you're tasked with tidying a cluttered board by spotting and selecting matching pairs. The catch? Your moves are limited, and the layout shifts as you play, demanding quick thinking and a sharp eye. With each level, the puzzle grows more complex, introducing new patterns and obstacles that challenge even seasoned puzzle fans. The game's clean visuals and soothing pace make it easy to pick up, but its escalating difficulty keeps you hooked. Whether you have a few minutes or a longer session, Cleaner offers a satisfying mental workout. Progress through dozens of handcrafted levels, each designed to test your spatial awareness and strategic planning. It's a simple concept with surprising depth—perfect for anyone who enjoys a thoughtful, rewarding challenge.

What is Cleaner

Cleaner is a puzzle game where you clear the board by finding and pairing identical tiles. It's easy to learn but tricky to master, as each level ramps up the challenge.

How to Play

Tap or click on two tiles that look the same to remove them from the board. Match all the tiles within the given move limit to complete the level.

Tips for Playing

  • Scan the entire board before making your first move to spot all possible pairs.
  • Prioritize matches that are close together to keep the layout manageable.
  • Clear tiles from the edges first to open up space in the middle.
  • Use a hint if you're stuck—it's better than making a random guess.
  • Plan a few moves ahead to avoid running out of moves near the end.
