Re: "Ensemble one more time please."
Note that after doing a few puzzles, you will start getting an intuitive feel for them.
My daughter can glance at the board and rattle off solutions (or pull the cards IRL) in a couple of seconds. But she can also get the pangram in Spellbinding in a couple of seconds. Ah, to be young and smart!

Ah! Ok let me explain it in my own word to make sure I understand:
+The goal is to make as many groups of 3 tiles as possible.
+ There are 5 characteristics per tiles:
- Shapes (circle square triangle)
- Fill of shape (filled empty lined)
- Number of shape (1 2 3)
- Color (orange green pink)
- Outline pattern (outline dotted chubby)
+To create a group you have to match 3 tiles that respect the rules that each characteristics have to be all the same, or all different, not 2 the same and 1 different.
+You can also re-use the same tile for different groupings.

Almost. There are FOUR qualities: color, count, shape and fill.
Since fill is really hard to see on tiny characters, the card outline matches the fill -- Thick for solid, thin for outline, and dashed for hatched
Also, each game has exactly four solutions.
Ensemble one more time please. — [gemini link] Please give it another try. I completely restructured it to be simpler and more robust. Thank you for your help. I should be able to bring this game online full-time very soon.
