The premise, in the publisher's words
Tumblestone is a casual puzzle and competitive multiplayer game from the creators of The Bridge. Tumblestone's beautiful, hand-drawn artwork will captivate you while the maddeningly addictive gameplay will keep you playing "just one more round" with your friends. At first glance Tumblestone may resemble other Match-3 games, but it completely reinvents the genre into a deep and cerebral puzzle solving experience that you won't forget.

The minimum specification calls for SSE2 instruction set support, 1 GB RAM and No dedicated graphics card required. At 1GB of RAM, it will run on essentially any working PC — that is below what a budget laptop ships with today. Install size is roughly 1GB.
What it launched against
Tumblestone launched on 12 July 2016, within three weeks of Inside, Abzu, Starbound and Batman: The Telltale Series. It reviewed better than 2 of the 4. It arrived 3 years into the PlayStation 4's life, so it was built for hardware developers already knew well.
Released around the same time: Inside, Abzu, Starbound, Batman: The Telltale Series.
