Practice beyond the first move

Read one step at a time and try it on the playing area. Match the instruction to the control you use. Make the next step deliberately.

What counts as success

Restore the sixteen image tiles to their correct positions. Keep that objective in view throughout the round. The example below illustrates a decision.

Step by step

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

Getting comfortable with the controls

Tap two tiles; desktop drag-and-drop is also available. Use the control method described here for this activity. Use one clear input at a time.

An example to follow

The horizon should continue across neighbouring tiles. Compare this with the rule that governs the move. Check the stated objective.

Avoid this misunderstanding

This is a square-tile swap puzzle, not interlocking freeform pieces. Compare the situation with the worked example. Choose one rule to keep in mind for this round. Apply it consistently rather than guessing what another version might allow.
