### 5/5 — Simple and everything you want in this tile game

*2026-06-27*

Basic version is limited to 3 x 3 and 4 x 4 tiles. Apps works exactly as you would expect.
There are no annoying ads which is great.

### 4/5 — Too limited

*2026-06-05*

You can’t even be allowed to increase the number of tiles without having to “upgrade” to payment.

**Developer response:** You can play with 3x3 and 4x4 puzzles for free. If you enjoy the game and want to play 5x5, 6x6 and 7x7 puzzles then a very small one-time purchase unlocks them forever. Many hours of entertainment for just two dollars is a very good deal.

### 5/5 — Great game

*2025-02-04*

Like the plastic toys we had as kids

### 3/5 — Slides slow

*2025-01-05*

I loved this game growing up. You would think that by using a touch screen you can slide just as quickly as the real thing or faster. Unfortunately it takes a couple of swipes to move the tiles also you can’t move a whole row which slows down the process even more. I gave it a 3 out of nostalgia but really it gets annoying having to swipe a couple of times in order for the tiles to move.

**Developer response:** You *can* slide more than one piece in a row or column in one move. Also, tapping a piece instead of sliding it makes for even quicker game play.

### 5/5 — Excellent

*2024-10-26*

Really helpful app ! With excellent customer service! Thanks

### 5/5 — Tile slider

*2024-09-30*

Amazing in joying every bit

### 5/5 — Good game recommend but it’s not for everyone.

*2024-09-12*

It is a really good game I really love it I recommend but I don’t think it is for everyone but if you like sliders this is definitely for you it is kinda hard but it gets easier once you start to play it.

### 4/5 — Great game!

*2023-12-16*

I really enjoy this app as it’s a straight shooting challenge you can set for yourself…can I complete it in less than a minute?

### 5/5 — Please make highlighted correct spot toggle-able

*2023-10-16*

This app is great.  I’m as fan of The Challenge and fancy difficult puzzles seen on the show.  This app allows me to create difficult slide puzzles off of graphics I or a friend makes.  

When the piece is in the correct spot it is highlighted.  Which definitely helps, but it would be fun to increase difficulty by disabling that feature so your not sure what’s right or wrong.  
Please add.

### 5/5 — 10/10

*2023-07-27*

This is such a fun and puzzling game I think it’s great for kids and adults and the first time I played I had so much fun and my best score is 16 seconds. I think you should get it
