The Tile Artisan

A workshop inherited

The Tile Artisan is a tile-making and decorating game for PC. After your grandmother Zahra leaves you her workshop, letters from her former clients bring orders to complete: Layla needs a kitchen backsplash, Hassan needs a counter for his tea house, and a wedding courtyard needs tiling. The story unfolds through letters across five or more chapters.

Making each tile

You work through the steps by hand, starting with kneading and rolling clay. Press it into square, hexagon, octagon or star shapes, then use symmetry stamps to build a design. A motif can mirror into a pattern; you can also turn and resize shapes, then snap them into place.
