Tessere - Mosaics of Italy
Arrow puzzles & mosaic art
Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
A journey through Italy and its 17 most iconic cities, told through a puzzle of arrows and chains waiting to be discovered.
In Tessere you compose mosaics by tapping arrows that slide across the canvas: each tap triggers a chain of tiles that lay themselves down like an ancient Roman mosaic. Plan your sequence, avoid the blocks and complete the figure within the time limit.
ITALIAN GRAND TOUR
17 iconic cities from Rome to Monreale, passing through Pompeii, Florence, Venice, Siena, Assisi, Ravenna, Milan, Turin, Genoa, Bologna, Padua, Urbino, Naples, Lecce and Barumini. Each city has 100 levels with increasing difficulty, unlocked in sequence by completing the boss level of the previous one.
MOSAICS AND ART MASTERPIECES
Every level you complete adds a tile to the city's mosaic. When you finish all 100 levels, the mosaic is complete and reveals a work of art inspired by Italian heritage. All mosaics together form the Grand Tour meta-mosaic: a tile-by-tile reinterpretation of Michelangelo's Creation of Adam.
VINTAGE POSTCARDS
At every milestone of 25, 50, 75 and 100 levels you unlock a vintage postcard of the city — 68 postcards in total to collect in your travel album.
