Patterns Link

As someone who occasionally dabbles in gaming and appreciates the traditional matching style of play, I've definitely enjoyed my time with Patterns Link. This tile-matching puzzle game spices up the beloved mechanics of Mahjong with a dash of fashionable flair by encouraging players to mix and match — quite literally, in style. Simple to play, but asks for attention and movement to avoid getting hit, giving just enough challenge to keep you engaged without being too in-depth fun.

As for fellow players, some have showered me with so much love and even asked me where they could buy the game and others had their scores not even recorded, but in general, they seem positive. Other than these minor hiccups, Patterns Link is a casual session that is satisfying enough and feels addictive from the word go. And for the fashion-forward gamers out there, a little fashion joke: Why did the pattern date the solid color? Because it wanted a steady relationship!
