This creative game is good both for kids and adults. To make a puzzle more easy to play, add the picture frame and turn off the rotation of pieces.

For each puzzle you can choose four different styles of pieces and smoothly change the number of pieces from 40 to more than 1700. In the most challenging style named Figure the pieces are shaped as animals, birds, insects, fruits and other objects.

To easily manage a vast number of pieces, you can use two main windows and four pockets. Select a group of pieces to move or neatly arrange them at once. To examine small pieces, use the Magnifying Glass. To make jigsaw more realistic, choose the visual effects.
