Pixel Puzzles Ultimate

Jigsaw puzzle fans have it pretty rough when it comes to enjoying their hobby sometimes. Hence, some of the puzzles are too big to leave lying around the house, because other people might bump into them and ruin your progress. Thankfully, we now have computer games that can replace this activity, and it’s a lot more exciting when everything remains exactly the same every time you go back to your puzzles.

Pixel Puzzles Ultimate is a collection of jigsaw puzzles that provides you with a variety of pictures and landscapes for you to put back together as quickly as possible. It also features a few interesting additions as well, such as power-ups and unique puzzle piece cuts. On the other hand, it’s still a jigsaw puzzle game at the end of the day, so don’t expect anything too exciting.

As such, you can choose from a handful of possible themes in the beginning, such as space, famous artwork, or animals, plus many other possibilities. On the other hand, this is where the mini-transactions come in, because although the game is free of charge when you download it, you can still purchase additional content by spending real money.

Even if you can easily understand how the gameplay mechanics work, it’s worth noting that the pieces are pretty difficult to tell apart and click on, especially when there are hundreds of them. Hence, it’s actually more time consuming to look for specific pieces around the image itself. On top of that, they can even be designed to rotate and float around the empty space around the puzzle.

Not much can be said about the graphics quality, except that at least it’s not annoying in any way. Since most of your time is spent looking at pictures and not at actual 3D landscapes or anything like that, the interface is the next big thing, and there are a few problems in this regard. It appears to be a tad too cluttered, not to mention the fact that you might have trouble understanding what needs to be done at first.

Despite its flaws, Pixel Puzzles Ultimate is still a pretty good game, even if it’s hardly original or polished when it comes to gameplay or graphics. However, it’s perfect if you are looking for a way to enjoy your hobby in a more flexible environment.
