Til3 is a new game being produced by M-Gate Labs for the iPhone. Its a simple matching game, that has one simple rule, you can only select tiles on the "Edge", inner tiles are off limits until they have a free edge. Other play modes may exist later down the line, once they are though up.

Availability

The game is available on iTunes for $1.99.

Background

First off why is it called Til3? Its really easy, I was going to use File Tile, but it was taken, then maybe Tile Clipper, but it was already taken, so I changed the e to 3 in the word tile and you have Til3. Even though you may want to say Til-3, just say Tile.

I saw a game like this a few years ago on some web game website, but I'm going to take the concept even further.
