Wow! Really cool puzzle game!

Even though I’m still not very good at it (my high-score is 70 <screenshot attached> and you mentioned 130 is a good one) I had a blast playing it.

The simple mechanics make a lot of sense and just fit perfectly.

Great work!

Thanks! Getting a high score requires both strategy and a bit of luck. To get a high score, you need to use as many tiles as possible to fill out the board, but you also need to know when to discard tiles. The shapes are intentionally annoying to not fit very well together. :)
