How to play

Click on the puzzle to scramble the tiles.

Click on any two tiles to swap them.

Once a tile is in the right position, it locks in place. The border around it disappears, and when you hover the mouse over it, you'll see a black "X".

To shrink the puzzle (so you can see the timer, etc.), move your mouse to any corner of the window.

The fewer tiles you move to complete the level, the higher your "efficiency", and the higher your score.

If you finish it before the bonus timer runs out, you also get points for the time left on the clock. But don't worry - you can keep playing even if you run out of time, and you'll still score points for completing the level.

Click on the completed puzzle to advance to load the next level.
