As we all know, jigsaw puzzle is a pretty straight-forward game to play. The basic gameplay is: you have a picture, the image is divided in number of pieces, and you are required to join all those pieces to make the picture.
But, Holiday Jigsaw Puzzle adds some interesting variations in this classic game. In this game, you get an option to choose among different type of puzzle pieces shapes (there is just a slight variation in them).
Also, you can choose different number of pieces.
The game also provides couple of options to ease your task, by providing hint etc., which I will discuss later.
How to Play Holiday Jigsaw Puzzle:
The game playing strategy of Holiday Jigsaw Puzzle game is very easy.
After launching the game , you are required to choose your own puzzle from a book of around 100 puzzles.
You can edit the settings of Puzzles here. You can choose number of pieces as well as shape of pieces, as I discussed earlier. In addition to that, you can also choose if the pieces should be rotated or not.
If you are just beginning with Jigsaw puzzles, then I suggest you keep rotation off, and choose less number of pieces, so as to keep complexity low.
Once the game starts, you will be able to see your jigsaw puzzle.
You need to rotate the pieces (if you chose Rotate on), and then drag and drop them to other pieces, in to join them. However, if the pieces do not fit, then they won’t join with each other. You earn points for joining them properly.
Some Options That This Game Provides to Keep Things Easy:
The developers of this game have provided some interesting options to help you complete jigsaw puzzle, even if you get stuck. You can access all these options via icons available at the bottom of screen (I have highlighted them in screenshot below).
- The first icon is to see the image that you are trying to complete. If you get stuck somewhere trying to remember the original image, just click on this icon.
- Second icon also shows the original image, but instead of showing the image as a pop-up, it shows the image in the background. This helps you in relatively positioning the pieces of this jigsaw puzzle together.
- Next icon is magnifying glass. If you chose to have lot of pieces, then you can use this option to see a magnified view of smaller pieces.
- Next option is to see border pieces. It is a well know trick in jigsaw puzzle games to start by first placing border pieces at correct places, as they are much easier to place. When you click on this icon, it will hide all other pieces and show only border pieces. Then you can easily move them to right place.
- Next interesting option is Hint. If you click on this icon, it will highlight two pieces in the jigsaw puzzle that will fit together. You can then easily fit them together, to reduce the complexity a bit. The best part is that you can take hint as many times as you want.
