What is Image Puzzle?
Image Puzzle is a free tool that instantly turns one of your own photos into a playable jigsaw puzzle. Pick a difficulty anywhere from an easy 2x2 up to a serious 12x12, and the very same photo becomes a completely different challenge just by changing how it is sliced. You grab and move pieces the same way whether you use a fingertip on a phone or a mouse on a computer.
How to play
- Tap "Select photo" and choose one of your own photos. Landscapes, people, and pets with rich detail make for the most rewarding puzzles.
- Choose a difficulty (the number of pieces). Start with 3x3 to 4x4 if you are new, or take on 8x8 and above for a real challenge.
- Your chosen photo is sliced into the number of tiles you set, and the pieces are shuffled into the tray.
- Grab a piece and drag it to its correct spot on the board. Use your finger on a phone or your mouse on a computer.
- When a piece lines up it snaps into the board. Filling in the corners and edges first makes the whole picture easier to read.
- If you get stuck, hover over a piece to see an enlarged preview and tell similar-looking tiles apart.
- Place every piece to complete the puzzle. Watch your time and move count to aim for a faster solve.
- To play again with a new photo or difficulty, just pick another photo or change the number of pieces for a fresh puzzle.
