Mendel Palace

Screenshots1 / 2

A top-down puzzle game board displays a 7x6 grid of green tiles with a white border. Three female player characters with pink/red hair occupy spaces in the middle rows. Orange flower-shaped tiles cluster in the center of the board. The UI shows "1UP" and "HIGH SCORE" at the top left, with a numerical score display. The bottom of the screen contains a black bar with "< ☆" symbols and additional score information. All sprites use 8-bit pixel art with bright primary colors against the predominantly green playfield.
