Question 1

Why is the Tent such an easy board?

Accepted Answer

Its triangular shape puts almost every tile along a sloping edge, and sloped edges leave many tiles free at once. It's mostly a single layer, you can see everything, and the door slit adds two more open edges, so matches stay plentiful and you rarely get stuck. That's why it sits at 2 out of 5.

Question 2

What is the door slit and how do I use it?

Accepted Answer

It's the small vertical gap at the center of the base, shaped like a tent flap. The tiles bordering it are free on the side facing the gap, giving you a second place to attack the dense central base from below. Clear outward from the doorway to open the bottom of the tent quickly.

Question 3

How should I clear the Tent efficiently?

Accepted Answer

Come down both sloping sides from the peak while also eating outward from the door slit. The wide base is the only part with any stacking, so don't fully strip the slopes first; keep slope tiles in reserve so you always have open matches feeding the bottom row.

Question 4

What if I run out of moves near the end?

Accepted Answer

You won't get stuck often on such an open board, but every Tent deal is guaranteed solvable from the start. If the last few base tiles do jam up, press Shuffle to re-deal the remaining tiles into another guaranteed-solvable arrangement.
