Practice with a purpose

Compare the worked example with your own position. Use the reasoning, not an answer copied from a different board. Use the example to check your reasoning.

Your objective

Restore the sixteen image tiles to their correct positions. Read that aim before choosing your first action. Check the rules when you are unsure.

How a round unfolds

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

Choosing and moving on screen

Tap two tiles; desktop drag-and-drop is also available. Read a button’s label before selecting it. Look at the feedback after the action.

See the idea in action

The horizon should continue across neighbouring tiles. Your next round may have a different position, so inspect it before acting. Notice the change in the playing area.

A mistake to avoid

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. Locate the buttons and input area before beginning a long round. Use the on-screen labels to avoid an accidental restart.
