How to play
Tinkets is a marble run puzzle. Every level is a floating isle with a marble that rolls, a cup to reach, and a hand of parts to place.
Place parts ahead of the marble
Drag a ramp, a block, a spring or another part from your hand onto the board. Rings glow where a part fits. Time runs at a quarter pace while you hold a part, so there is room to think.
Press Go and keep going
After a fly-over the marble waits. Press Go and it rolls, and it never stops. Place the next part before it arrives, and tap a part when its ring opens.
Marbles, lives and the cup
Each puzzle gives you three marbles. Lose them all and you try the same puzzle again, as often as you like. On the journey you have five lives a region, and one comes back every twenty minutes. The Daily has no lives at all.
Stars and emeralds
Pick up the gems on the way for more stars. Every part the marble touches pays an emerald the first time, banked when you win. Emeralds are never spent and never sold.
The Daily
One new puzzle a day at each difficulty, the same for everyone. Solve it, keep your streak, and share a result that never gives the answer away.
