Pro Tips for Faster Solves
These tried-and-tested strategies will shave minutes off your time and make puzzling more enjoyable.
-
Start With the Border
Edge and corner pieces have flat sides — they're easy to identify and give you a solid frame to fill in from.
-
Group by Colour
Sort loose pieces into colour piles in the open space around the board. A blue sky, a green field, a red roof — each cluster becomes its own mini puzzle.
-
Use the Preview
Hit the Preview button to glance at the full image any time. Identifying a distinctive pattern in the reference makes it much easier to hunt for matching pieces.
-
Arrange Regularly
The Arrange button lines all floating pieces neatly along the edges. A tidy board means less hunting, and you'll spot matching pieces much faster.
-
Zoom In on Tricky Areas
Use the Zoom control or your mouse wheel to get close to a section of the board. Fine details — a face, a texture, text — become much clearer up close.
-
Try Rotation Mode
Enable Rotation for a serious brain workout — pieces appear at random angles. This dramatically increases difficulty and is great for experienced solvers.
