=== Tile-matching === {{main|Tile-matching video game}} In tile-matching video games, the player manipulates tiles in order to make them disappear according to a matching criterion. The genre began with 1985's ''[[Chain Shot!]]'' and has similarities to falling-block games such as ''Tetris.'' This genre includes games that require pieces to be swapped such as ''[[Bejeweled (video game)|Bejeweled]]'' or ''[[Candy Crush Saga]]'', games that adapt the classic [[tile-based game]] [[Mahjong]] such as ''[[Mahjong Trails]]'', and games in which pieces are shot on the board such as ''[[Zuma (video game)|Zuma]]''. Puzzle games based on ''Tetris'' include tile-matching games where the matching criterion is to place a given number of tiles of the same type so that they adjoin each other. That number is often three, and the corresponding subset of tile-matching games is referred to as match-three games.
