Practice beyond the first move

When a decision goes wrong, compare it with the common mistake described below. Start again only when you intend to leave the current round. Refer to the controls when needed.

Your objective

Restore the sixteen image tiles to their correct positions. The feedback beside the game helps you follow the round. Notice how the game responds to your input.

Work through the instructions

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

Your inputs

Tap two tiles; desktop drag-and-drop is also available. On a smaller screen, keep the active part of the board within view. Check any mode label before starting.

Learn from a sample situation

The horizon should continue across neighbouring tiles. Compare this with the rule that governs the move. Look for the relevant detail.

A common point of confusion

This is a square-tile swap puzzle, not interlocking freeform pieces. Take a moment to reassess the position before continuing. Locate the buttons and input area before beginning a long round. Use the on-screen labels to avoid an accidental restart.
