Our Wonderful World

Sometimes a simple jigsaw puzzle game is all you need to have a good time, regardless of whether you are a gaming veteran or a casual fan. However, good mechanics are still important, regardless of how simple the game is. Even a basic puzzle game can turn into an annoyance if you are fighting the controls or a bad interface, but then again it’s more understandable in the case of a small production.

Our Wonderful World is a jigsaw puzzle game in which you have to move tiles around one by one, given the fact that they are merely scrambled, not spread all over the screen. Hence, you have to make use of a single empty spot to shift the tiles around, which makes things significantly more difficult. It’s still a lot of fun, at least if you are up for a challenge and you do not mind the slow pace.   There are multiple pictures to choose from, each one of which has an animal or a natural landscape on it. The most interesting game feature is the fact that you are free to use your own pictures instead. This opens up the game to many hours of fun, even if the mechanics remain the same over the course of the experience.

Since there are not many things that can be customized, the interface is very simple and to the point as well. In fact, the only things that can be changed about each round are the picture and the number of total tiles, starting from nine, all the way up to 35 blocks. Naturally, this increases the difficulty level, and it also increases the amount of time you have to spend with each puzzle.   The resolution for the included photos is not particularly high, but there doesn’t seem to be any restrictions on the ones you decide to use from your computer. Obviously, some might not have the proper aspect ratio to look good in the game, but you can easily fix that in the windowed mode by resizing the window manually. Speaking of which, the graphics are nothing to write home about, but they matter very little in such cases.

In the end, Our Wonderful World is not the prettiest puzzle game out there, but it certainly achieves its goal, which is to help you relax. The fact that you can add your own images is definitely a plus, and it can increase the game’s appeal by a lot. NOTE: This is a downloader for the game.
