Description:

Tilework is a deceptively easy-looking tiling game that challenges you to fill the screen without leaving any holes, using just two simple shapes. It is possible to join these shapes together to cover an infinite area, but it isn't easy. The process of fitting the tiles together is reminiscent of solitare, a jigsaw puzzle, Tetris, and a coloring book.

The tiles are called Penrose Tiles and they have many unusual properties. When joined together in a mosaic the
tiles make beautiful patterns related to the medieval Islamic building decoration called "Girih", which predates the western discovery of the tiles by 500 years.

The geometric patterns in the tiles are also found in nature where ever the Fibonacci series occurs, for instance in sunflowers and artichokes and some kinds of crystals and in the ancestry of bees.

The tiles cover the infinite plane without making any regularly recurring pattern and there is an infinite number of possible tilings. Any finite tiling within an infinite tiling occurs an infinite number of times in that tiling, and in all of the other possible tilings.
