Floor Tiles involves placing tiles so that the colors on each of four sides match. The tiles can be rotated. There is a point system and a time limit for each tile. The game board can be made smaller and larger.

FloorTiles is a game in the spirit of Tetris and Columns, but is NOT just a clone of either of these. It's a totally unique and original game in which you place 4-color (or 4-pattern, on B&W monitors) tiles on a grid and try to match colors with already-placed tiles. Very simple to learn, but fun and challenging to play. Requires both quick thinking and quick reflexes. You can play either the full-sized "Big Board" game, or a smaller, quicker "Small Board" game. FloorTiles runs in color on 256-color systems, and in glorious B&W otherwise.
