What players say
great set of puzzles at a fair price , the animations embedded in the puzzles pieces can sometime make it easier to figure out where the pieces goes. you start with easy puzzles then each puzzles get more pieces and since it's auto save this make it like real puzzles , something you start , place a few pieces then take a break before coming back again. small download , small price , relaxing little game that is...

Interesting concept and done well. The puzzle real estate (area) should be made to be larger though. Too much unused non-puzzle area.
If you are here for easy achievements, you will be disappointed. Some puzzles took me more than 1 hour to complete
