About Slide Puzzle
Slide Puzzle is the classic sliding tile game. The tiles are mixed up on a grid with one empty space. Slide tiles into the gap until the numbers run in order from the top left, with the empty space in the bottom right corner.
Every shuffle is guaranteed to be solvable. Warm up on 3×3, take on the standard 4×4, test yourself on 5×5, or rebuild a neon city picture. Your fastest time on each grid is saved.
How to play
- Tap any tile in the same row or column as the gap to slide it, along with the tiles between.
- Arrow keys and swipes move a tile into the gap.
- Solve the top row first, then the left column, then repeat on the smaller grid.
About Slide Puzzle
Slide Puzzle is the sliding-tile puzzle that became a craze in the 1870s as the fifteen puzzle: slide the tiles into the empty space until the numbers are in order.
Tips to score higher
- Solve the top row first, then the left column, then repeat on the smaller grid.
- Place the last two tiles of a row together: line them up below their spots, then rotate them in.
- Never break a finished row to fix another tile.
- Tap a tile in the same row or column as the gap to slide several tiles at once.
