Cookie Run Kingdom Flower City Tile Match guide
This new (and admittedly) incredibly frustrating event is where you can get incredibly lucky or you can put your skill to the test. This event has a lot of neat rewards, and if you manage to nail it every time, you'll find yourself summoning for Camellia Cookie pretty often.
So, this is a complete guide for the Cookie Run Kingdom Tile Event to help you make the matches a lot quicker, and to always pass all 5 stages. Curious to learn how? Let's dive right in!
What is the CRK Flower City Tile Match?
In this event, you have to match two tiles with the same cookie icon. The catch is that it cannot be in a weird path, so the tiles have to be matchable within two or fewer turns of a straight line. That means the line can only make two turns.How to pass all stages in CRK Tile Match?
In total, there are 5 stages. Each game will give you a random pattern, so I cannot give you a definite guide on where each tile will be placed, but I can tell you a few tips to make this guide worthy of your time. The way I managed to clear all 5 is by first increasing the time, then making use of the free reshuffles every single stage. Let me explain in more detail.
Possible tile match routes
I will show below with a couple of images some possible routes to match the tiles. Then, you can see on the following pages the complete Cookie Run Kingdom Tile Match tips I have for you!
Right now, there is also an event running until November 29th - all you have to do is check out the official event page on CRK's X account, and ideally, pass Stage 2!
We also have guides on two of the newest cookies, Golden Osmanthus Cookie and Red Osmanthus Cookie, so make sure you read those as well (you need to obtain Golden Osmanthus Cookie for the event anyway, so you might as well learn what her best Toppings and Beascuits require).

Tip #1 - Make sure you keep that combo going
The longer your combo is, the better. You can get +14 seconds time increase if you get to a bigger combo, which can be a HUGE help. The combo is what you always need to keep at all times if you want to pass, and that means you need to find tiles regardless if they're easy finds or not.
More often than not you won't find easy ones, unless we mean the tiles next to each other, so always make sure you scout the entire board before you start matching, find a couple of tiles that match, and don't make them right away. Give it a second or two between combos.
The reason I say that is because even if you found combos, you need to be on the lookout for more. Use that additional second before you make the match to find another, and then another, and match them before the combo timer runs out.
That is the safest way to keep the combo streak and find new matches easier.

Tip #2 - Spend coins on increasing your time first
The coins you get should always be spent on increasing that timer. You can hardly get to Stage 5 with the initial timer of 70s (IIRC), so try to get it to about 100s+ (ideally, 120s). That's an entire two minutes and you won't be as stressed out. You want to use every second to complete the stages, and to get more seconds, you will need the additional time.
After your timer is increased, you will have a much easier time passing all 5 stages.

Tip #3 - Do not fall for the hidden tiles
The hidden tiles will distract you every single time you get them, but you shouldn't fall for them. Trying to find their pair is a waste of time, and until you have enough combos and timer left at the end of the stage, you shouldn't even bother looking at them.
Yeah, true, sometimes they will be an easy match, but that's not always the case. You should try to make all the combos possible before you try to match the hidden tiles, and that's just because it will be a lot easier to focus on them later on.

Tip #4 - Use the free reshuffles every time you are in a pickle
I happened to use one of my reshuffles even at Stage 1, and ended up passing all 5 stages. It's all about how difficult each stage layout is, so make sure you don't shy away from using a reshuffle when needed.
You will get 3 reshuffles in every game, so for instance, if you spend one reshuffle on Stage 1, you will have 2 left for stages 2, 3, 4, and 5. In the next game, they will reset and you'll have 3 again.

Tip #5 - Keep an eye on the outer tile matches
The outer tiles are where you need to keep your eyes on. These are easy matches you should do to gain better access to other tiles, and in layouts where you have the tiles in a big, spread-out manner, making these outer matches will make it a whole lot easier to win.
The only exception is when you have the blocks that won't allow you to make outer matches.
