A focus for your next round

Watch the feedback after an action. A message can explain whether the input was accepted or whether a rule needs attention. Use the example to check your reasoning.

Your goal

Restore the sixteen image tiles to their correct positions. Keep that objective in view throughout the round. Start with a deliberate move.

Work through the instructions

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

Using the playing area

Tap two tiles; desktop drag-and-drop is also available. A careful first action helps you become familiar with the layout. Return to the rules if the result is unexpected.

An example before you play

The horizon should continue across neighbouring tiles. Use the example as a guide rather than a substitute for reading your board. Keep the controls nearby.

A mistake to avoid

This is a square-tile swap puzzle, not interlocking freeform pieces. Compare the situation with the worked example. After a move, check what changed. Decide which rule explains the new state before acting again.
