In the 13th century, a tower under construction began to lean in the Republic of Pisa.\nRestore the misaligned floors and save the tower from collapsing!

\n

Touch the panels like a slide puzzle, and stack them according to the floor numbers.

\n

You can go around the tower using the buttons on both sides of the screen.

Interesting version of puzzle “15”, you need to switch tiles to target places.\nBut implementation aren’t good, really weird behaviour of tower rotation, so it’s hard to easily get a place to play and find needed tiles.

Good game! Interesting.\nI liked the graphics and the simple effects. It would nice to be able to rotate the tower by dragging the mouse, in addition to using the left and right buttons. But cool idea!

The puzzle is really clever. It took some time for me to understand I could slide a wall down as well.

\n

It would be nice if we could rotate the tower with the mouse in addition to using the buttons.

Love the graphics and the puzzle was hard! But fair. Could have done with a bit more time and the ability to rotate individual levels left and right though

G’day!

\n

I don’t have time to win in such a time :). Interesting idea, but complicated gameplay. I also liked the scrolling and tilting of the tower, especially its fall :D.

\n

As an alternative to the “left-right” scrolling control buttons, I can recommend the Pointer Lock API, with the help of which scrolling can be implemented using mouse movement, and moving tiles can be implemented using the keyboard, I think it’s worth a try….

\n

Also noticed a negative time if you switch to another tab before finishing.

\n

In any case, I have not seen this before, quite innovative, thanks!

It was a very interesting game! Though it took me a few tries to get used to play and enjoy it since the rotation was continuous with one click of the left/right arrows. Also there were times i unconsciously dragged the screen to rotate.\nIt was very challenging to complete-the time limit is fair too :)

Clever 3D and texture mapping, runs well.

\n

Difficult to play, using full screen would have helped, was very small on my screen.

Interesting, looked good, strange that it was not full screen.\nThe puzzle was way too hard. Never saw a similar game, nice!

That was a fun simple puzzle game! Unfortunately with the speed of the controls the way they are, even though I had worked out what seemed like an optimal sorting algorithm, I still had no hope to solve it in time, so I hacked the timer to turn it off ;) Eventually finished all 3 phases of construction after that.

\n

Loved the graphics, really nicely done 3D render of the tower of Pisa. Great idea!

Overall, a lot of effort was put in making this game look good, and it does! But hard controls for an already hard game, maybe not the best combination.

Very simple game without much to it, and the visual was very small. I enjoyed the puzzle and think it’s a nice idea for a more complete game.
