### 4/5 — Glad to see this game back

*2024-03-03, version 3.1*

I was so happy to see this game revived, I am waiting to see if the features from the before return. Please oh please reinstate the ability to turn off the numbers, to add new images, and choose the image you want to play would make me so so so happy, then it will be back to 5 stars!

Adding to this a year later, I used to spend so much time with this game in the original form, but with so few pictures this is no longer a real challenge, and I wish I could turn the numbers off! I realise you gave this away for free, I’d be willing to pay for an updated version with more features.

### 5/5 — Please! 🥺

*2021-10-01, version 3.0*

I’m glad the game has been updated. I used to love playing the swap mode in this game. 

IMO, keeping the numbers on the tiles in swap mode takes away from the fun of figuring out the picture. I love swap mode because it’s easier, but having the numbers takes away the challenge. Please provide an option to remove them. 

Would also love the ability to use pics from my photo album.

### 5/5 — Nicely executed

*2015-02-13, version 2.0.0*

I bet I could play for hours. Wouldn't change a thing

### 5/5 — Dave's Tiles Puzzle

*2014-08-29, version 2.0.0*

The mini game jigsaw puzzle swap tiles that are in a lot of games in the app store that you wish was a separate game unto itself is what Dave's Tiles is and a whole lot more. I'm glad I bought it without trying the light version.

### 5/5 — I LOVE THIS APP!!!

*2014-03-16, version 2.0.0*

This is the best swapping picture app in the store. It can not get any better then, making your own puzzles, out of the people, or animals or things that you enjoy the most. Plus, with this great app, there is no limit to how many picture puzzles a person can have. This is a most app. You will not be disappointed, I am so glad I bought this.

### 5/5 — Mind Exercise

*2013-09-26, version 2.0.0*

I keep coming back to this app. I used up their pics and now use my own old less remembered pics mostly. Good for the brain and its fun to reveal the picture.

### 2/5 — More pictures, please

*2013-09-08, version 2.0.0*

Love this game.  Would like some more pictures.

### 5/5 — Great fun

*2013-05-27, version 2.0.0*

Keeps me coming back

### 5/5 — Dave's title

*2013-04-26, version 2.0.0*

Love it.

### 5/5 — Entertaining!

*2013-04-05, version 2.0.0*

It is a cool app. If you need something entertaining on a long car or plane ride this a cool app. There isn't really a way to make it better. I like being able to use my own pictures.
