The board generator works from real zellige tiling rules, so every layout that appears is geometrically legitimate rather than randomly decorated. Rendering runs on Canvas for frame stability on mid-range phones.
A game where the cultural reference survives contact with the gameplay — the patterns are the puzzle.
