Sliding Puzzle

A sliding picture puzzle where users slide scrambled tiles back into place to rebuild an image, such as your product, key visual or mascot. The clock runs until the picture is complete, so the fastest solvers top the leaderboard.

How the Sliding Puzzle Works

01

Start the Game

The round starts by itself with a 3, 2, 1 countdown that shows the finished picture, then the tiles scramble.

02

Slide the Tiles

Users tap a tile next to the gap, or swipe across the board, to slide the pieces back into place. Number badges on the tiles help, or can be turned off for a harder round.

03

Receive the Result

The clock stops when the picture is complete, and the fastest time ranks highest. A time limit can be added so the round can also end when time runs out.

04

Continue the Journey

Users can join a leaderboard, unlock a reward, submit their details or play again, depending on the campaign setup.
