==Gameplay==
[[File:TriangleTwisters2.png|thumb|left|150px|Triangle Twisters in Focus Mode]]
Triangle Twisters features two modes: Frenzy Mode and Focus Mode. Frenzy Mode is played when in multiplayer.

===Frenzy Mode===
In Frenzy Mode, the entire field is covered with triangles, and the player has 60 seconds to clear as many triangles as they can by connecting four or more. They start on level one, and by clearing 30 triangles, they progress to the next level. The player earns ten [[point]]s for every individual triangle they clear, and by clearing a level, the player earns 100 points for every second remaining, and the time limit increases up to 30 seconds. Additionally, clearing triangles in the pattern of a bigger triangle or a hexagon results in 200 and 500 bonus points, respectively. The game is over when the player runs out of time. In multiplayer, the player with the higher score wins.

===Focus Mode===
In Focus Mode, the player must position the triangles in the pattern shown on the top screen in order to clear them. In total, there are 50 puzzles to clear. The player can also press {{button|ds|X}} or tap the "Reset" button on the Touch Screen at any time in order to restart a puzzle. Clearing four triangles but not in the pattern shown causes the player to lose ten seconds. By clearing a level, the player earns the same bonus as in Frenzy Mode, for a maximum possible score of 450,000.
