About Cafe 3 in a Row
When you get tiles, no matter what's on them, you may feel a compulsion to sort them into pairings or groups. This game is all about tiles and arranging them so that you can have a nice clean space. It may not feel the same as clearing a table full of food and drinks, but it still feels nice to clear them away by sorting them properly. There is an order to do things though and you need to play by the rules otherwise you'll end up making a mess with no space to play your different pieces.
How to Play
Cafe 3 in a Row is a 2D puzzle game about sorting tiles in a cafe to clear the table using only the mouse. To move tiles, move the cursor over to them and click the Left Mouse Button. When you click on a tile, it will move into the bar at the bottom of the screen. The goal is to clear all the tiles arranged in the middle of the screen. If you end up filling your bar at the bottom without making any matches, the game will end and you'll need to restart the level.
When you start, the tiles will be arranged in layers in the center of the screen. You can only interact with tiles on the top layer, but as they're removed, the lower layers will become accessible. To remove tiles from the area, you need to match three of the same tiles in a row in the bar at the bottom. When matched, the tiles will be removed and you can start adding more tiles to the bar. You'll also have access to power-up which can be used to shuffle, gain hints, or undo a previous move.
Tips and Tricks
There's no rush to clear the area as soon as the tiles appear, so you're free to take your time and examine the layers. The bar does have free spaces for you to utilize, just keep in mind the available tiles and free the ones that you need. You can work from the edges or the center based on what tiles you have in your bar.
