### 5/5 — Simplicity is key to a great game: well done

*2022-07-03*

I love it! Because me best time for a 4x4 slider was 1:45, I thought I could have a time for a 5x5 slider.
Holly crap! It’s much harder, hence more addictive.
I’d like to partner with Geoff to bring this game to the next level €€€

### 5/5 — mindless time filler...

*2022-07-02*

....but fun!

### 5/5 — Perfect!

*2022-03-24*

Just what I was looking for! I like that it has a nice, simple style and doesn’t have any extra things that you don’t need.

### 5/5 — Just Right

*2020-03-28*

So simple, So good, 99p for the paid version - what’s not to like?

### 5/5 — Great app, just works

*2019-06-13*

Very clean and straight forward. All the updates just continue to drive to make it as minimal as possible. Things like removing the ads or resetting the board is as easy as holding your finger on it till it resets for the next game.  Great job keep it up.

### 5/5 — Classic

*2019-03-05*

Just like you want. Pay 0.99 and the ads go away and the options are there if you want them. Doesn’t try to get cute, just gives you the good basic game and allows you to take challenges if you wish. Exactly what I wanted

### 5/5 — It’s a cute game that works!

*2018-11-03*

An old fashioned game in an iPhone. Great combo!

### 5/5 — Nice logic

*2018-01-16*

Good problem solver puzzle.  Pretty easy for chess players. 👨🏻‍🎓 but still enough challenge to enjoy.

**Developer response:** Thanks. Try my Number Wrap game for something more challenging!

### 5/5 — Best tile app

*2017-11-29*

Hands down, wish I could say more... but it’s perfect. Smallest app on my phone, love it

### 5/5 — simple and fun

*2017-07-06*

good app

### 5/5 — Great game

*2017-04-24, version 1.10*

Great

### 5/5 — Exactly what I wanted

*2017-04-05*

I wanted a tile slider app that allowed me to get better at these puzzles and create my own. This app offers that and does exactly what it needs to. I love playing it when I have no mobile data or when I'm without wifi!

### 5/5 — Super fun puzzle

*2016-12-22, version 1.10*

Love this puzzle!

### 5/5 — Very good!!

*2015-12-20*

From all the tile sliders out there, this is by far my favorite. Very responsive in my Watch and looks great.

### 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.

### 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.

### 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?

### 4/5 — Super fun

*2017-04-06*

Really fun game! Not much more to say other then give it a try, and see if you can beat your personal best.

Great way to kill time

### 4/5 — Good But Missing A Feature

*2017-02-04, version 1.10*

Works just like you'd expect, and I like how you can use a picture from your phone. The UI is a little drab to look at, but it works. The real thing that bothers me is that the only way to move pieces is by tapping and dragging the tiles far enough, then letting go. I'm used to slider puzzels being usable simply by clicking, or in this case tapping. This works because the pieces can only move in one direction at any time. Since the only goal is to improve your time, I'd like to be able to do so with quick and accurate taps instead of rubbing the screen.

**Developer response:** Thanks for the suggestion. v1.11 adds the ability to tap a piece to move it into the space. As with swiping, multiple pieces can be moved at once.

### 4/5 — Very fun game

*2015-11-26*

Simple fun and has many options. Well thought out

### 4/5 — Great game

*2013-03-28*

It's the best slide puzzle. But you should remove hard mode and crazy mode. It takes too long to play. You should also remove flip tile and fix the Game Center leader board...it is impossible to solve easy mode in 1 sec...

### 4/5 — ADDICTED

*2012-12-26*

I can't stop playing this game, I got it to pass the time but now It's taking up most of it. Very easy to use and play, I can't find any problems with it. Absolutely fantastic.

### 4/5 — Gr8 app

*2012-12-01, version 1.0*

It's wonderful- to pass time with som intelligence

### 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.

### 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.

### 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
