In Mezen, you take on the role of a northern craftsman, creating intricate ornamental paintings to order. Combine symbols and flip tiles to accomplish goals and earn points. Each turn, players choose a group of adjacent identical symbols to remove from their painting and slide down the tiles above to fill the empty spots. After that, they flip the removed tiles to their opposite side from white to black and place them in the newly empty spots. By changing the placement of symbols this way, the players try to accomplish goals and score. Whoever has the most points after ten rounds wins.
