What these games are about
Butterfly matching games are tile-matching puzzles. In Butterfly Kyodai and Butterfly Shimai you match identical butterfly wings using Shisen-Sho (also called Mahjong Connect or Onet Connect) rules: pairs connect if a path can be drawn with at most three straight segments. Match all tiles to clear the board; some versions add a timer, hints, reshuffle, and power-ups.
