<p>A <b>tile-based video game</b>, or <b>grid-based video game</b>, is a type of <a href="Video_game" title="Video game">video game</a> where the playing area consists of small square (or, much less often, rectangular, parallelogram, or hexagonal) graphic images referred to as <i>tiles</i> laid out in a grid. That the screen is made of such tiles is a technical distinction, and may not be obvious to people playing the game. The complete set of tiles available for use in a playing area is called a <i>tileset</i>. Tile-based games usually simulate a <a href="Top-down_perspective" class="mw-redirect" title="Top-down perspective">top-down</a>, side view, or <a href="2.5D" title="2.5D">2.5D</a> view of the playing area, and are almost always <a href="2D_computer_graphics" title="2D computer graphics">two-dimensional</a>.

</p><p>Much video game hardware from the late 1970s through the mid-1990s has native support for displaying tiled screens with little interaction from the CPU.

</p>

<div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Overview">Overview</h2></div>

<p>Tile-based games are not a distinct <a href="Video_game_genre" title="Video game genre">video game genre</a>. The term refers to the technology that the hardware or <a href="Game_engine" title="Game engine">game engine</a> uses for its visual representation. For example, <i><a href="Pac-Man" title="Pac-Man">Pac-Man</a></i> is an action game, <i><a href="Ultima_I" class="mw-redirect" title="Ultima I">Ultima</a></i> is a <a href="Role-playing_video_game" title="Role-playing video game">role-playing video game</a> and <i><a href="Civilization_(video_game)" title="Civilization (video game)">Civilization</a></i> is a <a href="Turn-based_strategy" class="mw-redirect" title="Turn-based strategy">turn-based strategy</a> game, but all three render the world as tiles. <i>Ultima III</i> and <i>Civilization</i> draw the tiles via software, while the maze in the original arcade version of <i>Pac-Man</i> is made of tiles displayed by the game's graphics hardware. Tiles allow developers to build with a set of reusable components instead of drawing everything individually.

</p><p>Tile-based video games usually use a <a href="Texture_atlas" title="Texture atlas">texture atlas</a> for performance reasons. They also store metadata about the tiles, such as collision, damage, and entities, either with a 2-dimensional <a href="Array_data_structure" class="mw-redirect" title="Array data structure">array</a> mapping the tiles, or a second texture atlas mirroring the visual one but coding metadata by colour. This approach allows for simple, visual map data, letting <a href="Level_designer" class="mw-redirect" title="Level designer">level designers</a> create entire worlds with a tile reference sheet and perhaps a <a href="Text_editor" title="Text editor">text editor</a>, a <a href="Paint_program" class="mw-redirect" title="Paint program">paint program</a>, or a simple level editor (many older games included the editor in the game). Examples of tile-based <a href="Game_engine" title="Game engine">game engine</a>/IDEs include <a href="RPG_Maker" title="RPG Maker">RPG Maker</a>, <a href="GameMaker%3A_Studio" class="mw-redirect" title="GameMaker: Studio">Game Maker</a>, <a href="Construct_(game_engine)" title="Construct (game engine)">Construct</a>, and <a href="Godot_(game_engine)" title="Godot (game engine)">Godot</a>.

</p><p>Variations include level data using "material tiles" that are procedurally transformed into the final tile graphics, and groupings of tiles as larger-scale "supertiles" or "chunks," allowing large tiled worlds to be constructed under heavy memory constraints. <a href="Ultima_7" class="mw-redirect" title="Ultima 7">Ultima 7</a> uses a "tile," "chunk" and "superchunk" three-layer system to construct an enormous, detailed world within the PCs of the early 1990s.

</p>

<div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="History">History</h2></div>

<p>The tile-map model was introduced to video games by <a href="Namco" title="Namco">Namco</a>'s <a href="Arcade_game" title="Arcade game">arcade game</a> <i><a href="Galaxian" title="Galaxian">Galaxian</a></i> (<a href="1979_in_video_gaming" class="mw-redirect" title="1979 in video gaming">1979</a>), which ran on the <a href="Namco_Galaxian" class="mw-redirect" title="Namco Galaxian">Namco Galaxian</a> <a href="Arcade_system_board" class="mw-redirect" title="Arcade system board">arcade system board</a>, capable of displaying multiple colors per tile as well as <a href="Scrolling" title="Scrolling">scrolling</a>. It used a tile size of 8×8 <a href="Pixel" title="Pixel">pixels</a>, which since became the most common tile size used in video games. A tilemap consisting of 8×8 tiles required 64 times less memory and processing time than a non-tiled <a href="Framebuffer" title="Framebuffer">framebuffer</a>, which allowed <i>Galaxian</i><span class="nowrap" style="padding-left:0.1em;">'</span>s tile-map system to display more sophisticated graphics, and with better performance, than the more intensive framebuffer system previously used by <i><a href="Space_Invaders" title="Space Invaders">Space Invaders</a></i> (<a href="1978_in_video_gaming" class="mw-redirect" title="1978 in video gaming">1978</a>).<sup id="cite_ref-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Some <a href="Video_game_consoles" class="mw-redirect" title="Video game consoles">video game consoles</a> such as the <a href="Intellivision" title="Intellivision">Intellivision</a>, released in 1979, were designed to use tile-based graphics, since their games had to fit into <a href="Video_game_cartridge" class="mw-redirect" title="Video game cartridge">video game cartridges</a> as small as 4K in size.

</p><p><a href="Home_computer" title="Home computer">Home computers</a> had hardware tile support in the form of <a href="ASCII" title="ASCII">ASCII</a> characters arranged in a grid, usually for the purposes of displaying text, but games could be written using letters and punctuation as game elements. The <a href="Atari_8-bit_computers" title="Atari 8-bit computers">Atari 400/800</a> home computers, released in 1979, allow the standard character set to be replaced by a custom one.<sup id="cite_ref-dere_2-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-dere-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The new characters don't have to be glyphs, but the walls of a maze or ladders or any game graphics that fit in an 8x8 pixel square. The video coprocessor provides different modes for displaying character grids. In most modes, individual monochrome characters can be displayed in one of four colors; others allow characters to be constructed of 2-bit pixels instead, which allowed up to 5 colors to be displayed by swapping between 2 colors via an extra bit in the tile index byte. Atari used the term <i>redefined characters</i> and not <i>tiles</i>.

</p><p>The tile model became widely used in specific game genres such as <a href="Platform_game" class="mw-redirect" title="Platform game">platform games</a> and <a href="Role-playing_video_game" title="Role-playing video game">role-playing video games</a>, and reached its peak during the 8-bit and 16-bit eras of consoles, with games such as <a href="Mega_Man_(video_game)" class="mw-redirect" title="Mega Man (video game)">Mega Man</a> (<a href="Nintendo_Entertainment_System" title="Nintendo Entertainment System">NES</a>), <i><a href="The_Legend_of_Zelda%3A_A_Link_to_the_Past" title="The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past">The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past</a></i> (<a href="Super_Nintendo_Entertainment_System" title="Super Nintendo Entertainment System">SNES</a>) and <i><a href="Shining_Force" title="Shining Force">Shining Force</a></i> (<a href="Mega_Drive" class="mw-redirect" title="Mega Drive">Mega Drive</a>) being prime examples of tile-based games, producing a highly recognizable look and feel.

</p>

<p>Most early tile-based games used a top-down perspective. The top-down perspective evolved to a simulated 45-degree angle, seen in 1994's <i><a href="Final_Fantasy_VI" title="Final Fantasy VI">Final Fantasy VI</a></i>, allowing the player to see both the top and one side of objects, to give more sense of depth; this style dominated <a href="History_of_video_games_(8-bit_era)" class="mw-redirect" title="History of video games (8-bit era)">8-bit</a> and <a href="History_of_video_games_(16-bit_era)" class="mw-redirect" title="History of video games (16-bit era)">16-bit</a> <a href="Video_game_console" title="Video game console">console</a> role-playing games. <a href="Ultimate_Play_the_Game" title="Ultimate Play the Game">Ultimate Play the Game</a> developed a series of video games in the 1980s that employed a tile-based <a href="Isometric_graphics_in_video_games_and_pixel_art" class="mw-redirect" title="Isometric graphics in video games and pixel art">isometric perspective</a>. As computers advanced, isometric and <a href="Dimetric_projection" class="mw-redirect" title="Dimetric projection">dimetric</a> perspectives began to predominate in tile-based games, using <a href="Parallelogram" title="Parallelogram">parallelogram</a>-shaped tiles instead of square tiles. Notable titles include:
