Beautiful!
I just adore the artwork! I also love the way the color gradually comes in as you complete the puzzle.
I do however wish that you had the option to completely turn off the background picture to add more of a challenge. I do a lot of puzzles and usually only do 1k+ pieces and start with an inside piece that catches my eye and work out from there and never look at the picture for a challenge. Having the pic in the background makes it kind of feel like a child’s puzzle. I think it would make the app appeal to a wider audience.Show lessDpderk
Love it!
Really enjoying the lovely art, stories and act of working on puzzles!
Very confused by some of the negative reviews. You can easily switch between the picture and the story, yet some claimed you can’t. This is covered in the tutorial. Also some are saying you are just going by the image outline to put in pieces, so it’s “not like doing a real puzzle” but in the same review they are complaining that edge pieces can’t be filtered out (which isn’t done for you when doing a real puzzle). Anyway, I’ve found that only the edge needs to be completed with the guide. If you don’t switch to the middle / story view you can simply fill in the center as you would with a normal puzzle, the background guide doesn’t fill in as you fill the puzzle. It would be cool to turn off the guide altogether, going in blind! Something to consider for the developers. :) I do agree with one reviewer’s stance that a lefty mode would be nice, allowing you to switch where the pieces you pull from are. I’ve managed just fine without it but I’m all for a smoother lefty experience!Show lessBonnye
Outstanding, especially when winding down for the night.
As a parent of two kids under the age of four, I cannot express how much I didn’t know I needed this game. Sometimes I get tired of the constant grind in Diablo Immortal, or mindlessly watching ad after ad in idle clickers. I want something where I can turn my brain off and just unwind, and this game does just that.
Puzzle building alone is already such a relaxing pastime, but add in beautiful quotes and serene music and I have achieved full zen bliss. It’s one of those games that you download because “hey why not” and you play it and it consumes you.
It’s certainly not without it’s follies. I have the biggest iPhone I can get, and sometimes I still can’t grab puzzle pieces I dropped on the board without either zooming in or accidentally moving my viewpoint. I also wish there was a way to let the screen scroll when you are zoomed in and have a piece to an area you can’t reach, but they are minor grievances.
Really thrilled with the game and I can’t wait to go through every puzzle.Show lessPeterThomas6

Hi there thank you for playing and for the wonderful feedback! Brings a smile to our faces :) Just wanted to share that we are currently working hard on some updates that will improve some of these points you made... stay tuned for more!Beautiful
This is a lovely puzzle game. Very relaxing. I like it better than Patterned, the pictures are so wonderful.
I had no trouble figuring this out. I like that you can do pictures or story, and I prefer the picture version to work the puzzle. Such a lovely way to spend some relaxing time.

Not good on the iPhone
I can’t speak to the quality of this game on the iPad but on even the largest iPhones (I have an iPhone 14 Plus) the screen is just too small to make the experience enjoyable. If you don’t zoom into the picture, the pieces are too small to be able to place with any sense of accuracy, and the guidelines are just plain useless at the default settings. Bizarrely, the only way to zoom is to use the menu on the side (rather than pinching in and out). Of course, when zoomed in, it means you need to drag the frame around a lot. Even the simplest puzzle in this game (the one you start with) is basically an exercise in frustration. After I finished the first puzzle I had a horrible headache. I can’t recommend this game. At least on the iPhone. At all.Show lessMudak326
Great game with great music
I love this game! It has so many different beautiful puzzles to choose from then add on top the most calming and relaxing music. It’s a great wind down game. The only thing I would suggest would to have the puzzle pieces on the side to be the same size as the ones on the board. Other than that it’s PERFECT!Show lesssheena0319
Subpar Puzzler
It has beautiful pictures, but you can Google those images. The actual puzzle system is inane. You have two modes of viewing the puzzle; neither are necessary. In a chosen mode, part of the puzzle is greyed out, but all the pieces are playable. Additionally, besides the Van Gogh puzzles, the remaining themes are random people giving ridiculous quotes. I personally don’t care about what some person from the United States has to say about a made up fantasy world. Really poor design and execution. Skip it and download an actual puzzle app.Show lessterrible092
Meh, it could be a lot better
You can’t filter the pieces by edges & not edges and all you’re doing is matching the puzzle piece to the picture. It’s definitely not like putting a real puzzle together. There’s a MUCH better puzzle app in the arcade that is more like a real puzzle. You can change the # of pieces you want the puzzle to be, you can do all the edges 1st and build from there, you’re not matching pieces to a picture, you can zoom in & out, it’s just a much better puzzle app all around. It would be helpful if the developer of this app played with the other jigsaw puzzle app in the arcade call Jigsaw Puzzle+ just to get some ideas b/c this app has the potential to be a great puzzle app, the pictures are beautiful, prettier than the other app but right now it’s not quite what I’m looking for in a jigsaw puzzle. I’ll stick to the other app for now & check back on this one in a couple of months.Show lessRedRocket131

Hi there thanks for playing and for your feedback! Appreciate the kind words about the illustrations ;) Just so you know we're adding a few features such as being able to lock the gameboard and sorting the pieces by edge/middle. These should be out very soon here - please do check back! On iOS devices, zooming in and out is already enabled in the game ;)I love this game! Couple issues but still great!
I really liked this game and had my phone set to notify me when it came out. My only complaints are that it’s a little tricky to swipe to find pieces without picking up ones you don’t want. Also I personally like when there’s an option to sort the edges from the center pieces so i don’t have to search through all of them.Show lessBakedbeansboy
Clunky play for lefties. Needs to be more customizable.
I am no stranger to puzzle games, but despite the beautiful artwork and relaxing music, I don’t crave playing it like my other puzzle apps. I realized the reason is because the gameplay is awkward. As a lefty selecting a piece from the right side, my hand is covering the space to which I’m trying to line up the piece. Please add a setting allow the dock to be moved to the left. Also, provide an option to sort the pieces so that edges can be completed first. I find switching between modes disruptive. Finally, an ability to remove the story text and read it after completing the puzzle would be appreciated. While the text does help with lining up pieces, I would rather look at the pretty artwork unobscured. I will check back occasionally to see if any of these requests have been implemented. There’s a lot of potential here. I’d love to be able to bump my score up to 5 stars.Show lessseaph09

Hi there thank you for playing and for the great feedback!! Wanted to share that left-handed mode is in the works right now, and also edge/middle piece sort too. And... the ability to remove the background story text layer, or the entire background images altogether if you like a big challenge!!
