About

Fix the Pic

Features
Read full description

Fix the Pic turns your own photos into sliding-tile puzzles. Pick any photo from your library, choose a tile size (small, medium, or large), and the app slices it into a grid of square tiles, then shuffles them. Drag tiles to swap them back into place and rebuild the picture. Each game is scored based on the number of tiles, how quickly you solve the puzzle, and whether you used peeks or hints along the way. Beat your high score, track your game history, and challenge yourself with tougher tile sizes. Features: • Use any photo from your library • Three tile sizes for easy, moderate, or challenging puzzles • Peek at the original photo mid-game (but it will cost you some scoring points) • Toggle tile-number hints to guide your solving (points subtracted while hints are on) • Score breakdown with detailed explanation after every game • High score tracking and full game history • Pause, shuffle, and restart at any time • Optional timer display and sound effects Try 10 games free, then unlock unlimited play with a single one-time purchase. Privacy note: YOUR PHOTOS STAY ON YOUR DEVICE. A temporary copy of your selected photo is used only while the game is active — nothing is stored or transmitted anywhere. Fix the Pic uses no network connection during gameplay (network connection only required at the time of purchase of the unlimited play unlock).

Welcome to Word Braid, a word puzzle made for anyone who loves to challenge their mind. Connect the letters on the board and discover the hidden words one by one. Unlike ordinary word puzzles, in Word Braid words are not written in straight lines alone; a word can turn at any letter and trace its own path across the board. Look closely, follow the trail, and reveal them all. A Tougher Word Puzzle In a classic word puzzle, every word lies in a straight line, so the moment you see its direction, the answer is yours. Word Braid asks for a little more. A word can turn at any letter, so you have to read the whole board, keep several possible paths in mind, and think one step ahead. Since every letter belongs to a word, each level becomes an enjoyable puzzle that tests your patience and skill. Challenge Yourself The difficulty grows as you go. The first levels ease you in; little by little the paths grow longer and the words hide more cleverly. If you are looking for a word game that truly makes you think, this is the one. A Puzzle for Your Mind Every puzzle gives your mind a fun challenge. As you trace the hidden words, you put your logic, memory, and attention to work. Play a little every day and enjoy every solve. Expand Your Vocabulary Word Braid offers new words at every step. The harder levels reward a wide vocabulary and remind you of words you rarely use, so every puzzle becomes a chance to learn something new. Sharpen Your Focus Tracing even a single word takes real attention, and holding the whole board in your mind keeps you calm and focused. Every puzzle becomes a quiet, satisfying moment of concentration. Are You Up for the Challenge? Download Word Braid and put your mind to the test. See how far you can go, how many hidden words you can find, and just how good a word puzzle player you really are!
