Practice with a purpose

Keep the stated aim separate from side details such as animation or appearance. Progress is measured by the game’s own completion or scoring rules. Use the example to check your reasoning.

Your goal

Restore the sixteen image tiles to their correct positions. Keep that objective in view throughout the round. Return to the instructions when a step is unclear.

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.

Controls

Tap two tiles; desktop drag-and-drop is also available. Keep the playing area visible while using these controls. Return to the rules if the result is unexpected.

A useful example

The horizon should continue across neighbouring tiles. Focus on why the action is allowed, not only its outcome. Check the stated objective.

A useful caution

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. Read one step at a time and try it on the playing area. Match the instruction to the control you use.
