About this game

Crystalline Codex is a neon match-3 game where you swap adjacent crystal shapes to line up three or more and clear them before a steadily rising tide meter fills to the top. Matching tiles charges a crystal meter that, once full, unleashes an area-clearing burst and pushes the tide back. Chain combos and level up while the tide climbs faster the longer you survive.
