THE GAME GUIDE

Jigsaw

An open puzzle table with 50 to 1,000 classic pieces. Drag loose pieces into the center and enjoy matching neighbors snapping together.

How to Play

Choose a built-in photograph or select Create a puzzle from your photo. Review the crop, move it with the sliders, and choose a piece count. The preview shows the exact rectangle you will assemble; the grid and actual count are shown before you start.

Loose pieces start on both sides of an empty center. Drag any piece directly onto the table. Correct neighbors snap together with a brief highlight and move as one group. Use the wheel, zoom buttons or two fingers to zoom; drag empty space or enable Pan workspace to move the view. Full screen gives the puzzle more room.

Fit view brings the entire table into view. Arrange loose pieces spreads single pieces around the center without breaking connected groups. Edge filtering hides interior pieces without losing them. Picture preview, background guide and a soft snap sound are optional in Help & options.

Rules

Easy has exactly 50 pieces, Medium 100, Hard 200, Expert 500 and Master 1,000. The grid follows the picture's proportions where possible; any crop needed to keep usable piece shapes is shown before play.

Only true neighboring pieces can connect, with their relative positions and orientation aligned. Rotation is off by default; if enabled before starting, use Rotate selected or R to turn a group by 90 degrees. Complete the picture upright to finish. Progress counts joins, not points, and completion is announced once.

Built-in puzzles save locally when storage is available. Personal photos are temporary by default. Selecting Save this puzzle on this device stores the cropped photo and progress locally. Delete saved puzzle removes that saved copy; the current picture stays in this tab until you replace it or close the page. There is one saved-puzzle slot.

Keyboard: focus the workspace and use [ or ] to select a piece or group. Arrow keys move it; Enter tries a join. Shift plus arrows makes smaller adjustments. In Pan mode arrows move the view. Plus and minus zoom; F fits the view. Restarting or replacing an unfinished puzzle asks for confirmation.

Pieces begin in gently overlapping piles. Enable Select pieces, drag a box from empty space around the centers of pieces you want, then drag a highlighted piece to move the selection. Shift-click adds or removes a group; Shift-drag adds another box. Joined groups stay intact and loose pieces stay separate. Clear selection or Escape releases them. On touchscreens use Select pieces, or Pan workspace to move the view.

Strategy & Tips

Start with edge filtering to build a frame, then turn it off to recover the rest of the picture. Use distinct colors and lines to collect small groups. A similar-looking edge is not enough: only the correct neighbors will join.

For 500 or 1,000 pieces, zoom in and work on a small area of the table. Join recognizable details, then move each group aside. Fit view finds scattered pieces again; Arrange loose pieces organizes single pieces without breaking groups.

Try an original photo with clear subjects and varied colors. A large plain sky or repeated texture makes a harder puzzle even at the same piece count. The crop preview helps you avoid cutting off a face or important detail.

Try a small sorting task: choose Select pieces, start your selection rectangle on empty table space and surround the centres of several sky pieces. Drag one highlighted piece to carry the whole selection. Clear selection ends the temporary selection without separating any pieces that have snapped together. A selection is a way to move a pile; only correct neighbouring pieces become a connected group.

Select pieces → draw a box from empty space → drag a highlighted piece. Selection moves a pile; snapping joins true neighbours.
