About Piano Tiles
Tap the black tile in each four-column row before it scrolls past, without ever tapping a white tile. The board uses four columns and one black tile per generated row.
Tile speed is calculated as 3 + score×0.08. A black tile that scrolls past unhit is treated as a miss and ends the run.
How to Play Piano Tiles
1Watch the four columns for the next black tile.
2Tap the black tile once before it passes the hit area.
3Continue without touching any white tile as the speed increases.
Piano Tiles Rules
- Each correct black tile adds 1 point.
- Tapping a white tile ends the run immediately.
- Letting an unhit black tile pass also ends the run.
