How to play Picture Puzzle
- Move a piece. Drag it to another spot, or tap it and then tap where it should go. The pieces there trade places with it.
- Watch pieces join. Two pieces that belong next to each other join with a soft chime. Joined pieces move as one group.
- Finish every picture. A whole picture flies to your gallery, the pieces above it fall into the gap and new cards drop from the deck at the top. When the deck and the board are empty, the level is complete.
Stuck? Hint lights up two pieces that belong together, and Peek shows the finished pictures for a moment. Both are free, but they lower your score a little.
Levels, grades and your gallery
Levels grow gently, and new boards keep coming.
| Levels | Board |
|---|---|
| 1 | One picture, 2 by 2 |
| 2 to 8 | Two to four pictures, 2 by 2 each |
| 9 to 11 | One picture, 3 by 3 |
| 12 to 15 | Six pictures, 2 by 2 each |
| 16 and up | Two pictures 3 by 3, or six pictures 2 by 2 |
At the end of a level you get a grade for your time, your moves and your best combo, from C up to S, and you see how your score compares with other players on the same level.
Tips for solving faster
- Sort by picture first. Decide which picture each piece belongs to by its colors.
- Look for the sky and the ground. Top pieces usually show sky, bottom pieces ground or water.
- Move groups, not single pieces. Once two pieces join, carry them together to where the rest of the picture is.
- Use Peek early. One look at the finished pictures at the start saves many moves.
The pictures
Every picture is original artwork made for NitroPlayer in a warm, painterly style: cozy cats and dogs, flowers in a vase, a Paris café, lighthouses at sunset, red barns in autumn, Route 66, mountain lakes and seaside villages. Soft colors and clear shapes make the pieces easy to tell apart, so the game stays calm. Tap any picture in your gallery to see it full size.
Play with a friend
You can duel another player or a friend on the same board of four pictures: the first to finish all four wins.
