Rain in the Reading Corner

Today’s mural

Rain in the Reading Corner

Rain on the window all afternoon, and nowhere in the house worth being except the reading corner. The lamp goes on at four. A cup of tea goes cold on the side table, because the book has reached exactly the part where you do not stop.

How to play

  1. 1

    Place. Drag a tile from the tray onto the wall. Drop it on another tile to swap them.

  2. 2

    Turn. Tap a tile to rotate it a quarter turn clockwise.

  3. 3

    Restore. A tile in its right place, the right way up, glints. Fill the wall to finish.

The small mural on the side shows what you’re rebuilding. Tap it to see it larger. Once the wall is full, a clue can point out a tile that’s wrong. Tiles that look identical are interchangeable. On a keyboard: arrows to move, Enter to turn, Space to pick up and put down, Delete to send a tile back to the tray.

A cozy tile puzzle, once a day

Azulo Daily is a free daily picture puzzle made of tiles, played in your browser. Every day there is one new blue-and-white mural, painted in the style of Portuguese azulejos: the glazed ceramic tiles that line the walls of cloisters, chapels, railway stations and old houses across Portugal. The panel arrives in pieces: forty-five tiles on a shelf, shuffled and turned the wrong way. Put it back together at your own pace. There is no countdown, and nothing is lost if you walk away and come back.

Everyone gets the same mural and the same scramble on the same day, so you can compare times with a friend. A new mural arrives at midnight, your local time. It’s free, with no sign-up and nothing to install.

Questions

When does the puzzle change?
At midnight, wherever you are.
Does it save my progress?
Yes, in this browser. Close the tab and your tiles stay where you left them.
Can I replay a mural?
Yes. Once it’s restored, Replay deals the same tiles again, and Start over does the same partway through. Your first restore is the one you share and the one that counts for your streak; your best replay is shown beside it.
Is there more to play?
Azulo Monastery has thirty murals across six acts, on iPhone, iPad and Android. No ads, and it works offline.

Azulo Daily

Mural restored

A blue-and-white azulejo mural of a reading corner on a rainy afternoon, with a deep blue patterned wing armchair and a folded striped blanket with fringes beside a tall window streaked with rain, looking out on cloud scrolls and the terracotta roofs of the town, a lit blue reading lamp on a stack of books and a cup on a round wooden side table, white bookshelves crammed with books in blue, brown and cream, a patterned plate, a candle in a blue candlestick, a model sailing boat, a blue-and-white ginger jar, a blue jug, a lidded bowl, a small framed picture of a sailing boat and potted plants and a little lemon tree along the top, a blue-and-white tiled dado with a framed tile panel of a sailing ship on the waves, a bold blue-and-white rug with fringes on a terracotta floor, a wicker basket of letters and a lemon tree in a terracotta pot.
