PuzzleShift
Read full descriptionHide full description
PuzzleShift is a picture puzzle game built around colorful fantasy artwork. Each level cuts an image into tiles, shuffles the board, and asks you to restore the original picture. Play two puzzle styles: Slide mode moves adjacent tiles into the empty space, while Swap mode lets you drag two tiles to trade places. Choose 3x3, 4x4, or 5x5 boards as you unlock more challenges. The game is designed for short, focused sessions. You can undo moves, preview the reference image, replay cleared levels, chase better move counts, and collect stars across scenes, characters, and fantasy pets. PuzzleShift works as a local single-player game. It does not require an account, does not use third-party ad tracking, and stores progress on your device. Each image is built for puzzle play, with clear subjects, varied corners, color clues, and recognizable scene details. Use observation, memory, and tile strategy to restore the artwork, improve your best move counts, and progress from relaxed 3x3 boards to sharper 4x4 and 5x5 challenges.
