How to play Jigsaw Puzzle

Start Jigsaw Puzzle by looking at the playing area and its controls. 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. Choose a clear next step rather than rushing through the instructions.

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

Notice the feedback

Watch the feedback after an action. A message can explain whether the input was accepted or whether a rule needs attention. Keep the objective visible.

Your goal

Restore the sixteen image tiles to their correct positions. Read that aim before choosing your first action. Take a moment to understand the current position.

Step by step

  1. Select two pieces to swap.
  2. Desktop dragging can also swap tiles.

  4. Complete the image.

Controls

Tap two tiles; desktop drag-and-drop is also available. Use the control method described here for this activity. Read the example below alongside these instructions.

A useful example

The horizon should continue across neighbouring tiles. Compare this with the rule that governs the move. Read the matching step again.

Watch out for this

This is a square-tile swap puzzle, not interlocking freeform pieces. Take a moment to reassess the position before continuing. 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.
