Games Like Puzzle Simulator

Few things feel as good as a piece that fits, and Puzzle Simulator is built around that moment. Flip pieces over with a click, sweep a handful onto a mat, and hear each one snap home as the picture comes together, right up to the last piece.

Takes you on a journey across four chapters. Take the scenic route through quiet countryside and still water, settle in with cozy creatures by lamplight, set off on a train voyage along the coast and out into the snow, and end the trip with a day in a world of mushrooms. Finish a box to open the next, and clear a shelf to move on to the next chapter. Every box keeps its own save, so you can leave one halfway and find it just as you left it.

Turns your own pictures into puzzles. Upload a holiday photo, your pet, or a favourite piece of art, and choose how many pieces to cut it into, from a quick 30 up to 3,000. Then pick a colour for the box and give it a name. Your picture is printed on the lid, and the box goes on a shelf of your own, ready whenever you are.

Pieces come out of the box the way they do in real life: some face up, most face down, and different every time. Turn them over, then pick a mat from the Mat Wheel and send pieces to it by edge, by colour, or by whatever the picture needs.

Pick a tool from the wheel under your pointer. Hand moves one piece. Sweep grabs everything you stroke across. Sort lays a mat out in rows so you can see what you have.

Waiting on a queue, a friend or a patch? Set the Table Timer for 5 to 30 minutes. It rings when time is up, and your puzzle stays right where you left it.

Make the table your own. Change the cloth, the board and the mats to suit how you like to puzzle.

Put a record on while you work. The game comes with its own tracks, and you can upload your own music to play at the table.

Eight pieces in every Story Mode box have a charm printed on the back. The only way to find one is to turn that piece over, so they turn up while you work. Once found, it stays on the box for good.

Tune every sound and every part of gameplay exactly how you want it. Each sound has its own volume, from the snap of a piece to the sweep across a mat, and you can change how pieces pick up, how the wheels open, how the camera zooms and pans, and every key binding.
