Know the goal in Jigsaw Puzzle

Bring your attention to one round of Jigsaw Puzzle. Restore the sixteen image tiles to their correct positions. Check the relevant rule before repeating a move. Read the objective before making your first input. Look at what changes after your first action.

Restore a 4×4 landscape by exchanging two pieces at a time. Progress in this puzzle is not saved after you leave the page.

An idea for your next attempt

Before your first action, say what you are trying to achieve. Then compare the result with the goal. Make the next step deliberately.

What you are aiming for

Restore the sixteen image tiles to their correct positions. Read that aim before choosing your first action. Try to explain the aim in your own words.

A walkthrough of the rules

  1. Select two pieces to swap.
  2. Desktop dragging can also swap tiles.
  3. Compare edges and the reference picture.
  4. Complete the image.

Input guidance

Tap two tiles; desktop drag-and-drop is also available. Read a button’s label before selecting it. Check any mode label before starting.

Try this example

The horizon should continue across neighbouring tiles. Use the example as a guide rather than a substitute for reading your board. Check the stated objective.

Keep this in mind

This is a square-tile swap puzzle, not interlocking freeform pieces. Read the feedback to see why an action did not have the expected result. After a move, check what changed. Decide which rule explains the new state before acting again.
