There is a set number of tiles the player must touch to win. The screen moves manually, at the rate which the tiles are touched. The player may attempt to touch these tiles in as little time as possible. Some events in Piano Tiles 2 may use classic mode.
- Arcade Mode
The tiles on the screen automatically move and the player must keep up with the pace. The game lasts until one tile is missed in between, or a white tile is tapped. It contains a wide variety of variants, all of which are in a similar mode known as Arcade+ Mode. Piano Tiles 2 use only arcade mode.
- Zen Mode
