It’s almost perfect

I would love for this game to exist outside of the Arcade.

Love this game

I’m in love with this game but a little feedback - it’d be great if you could see whether each puzzle is in portrait or landscape without having to download and open them. Other than that it’s perfect

Meh

It’s ok but the puzzle pieces are all in black and white and it makes the puzzle very difficult to do. You have the option to have the picture in the background but that makes it too easy. I like it without the picture in the background guiding you but making the pieces black and white ruins it

Too much struggle to move pieces!
Sat Jan 21 2023 EvChev21

I have played many puzzle apps and built IRL puzzles and never before have I encountered one so difficult in moving the pieces into location or shifting them. Drag time is bad. Sometimes when I’d try to move a piece the whole page would move instead. This is on my iPad. And even if I find two or more pieces that fit together apart from the puzzle (like one can do in real life and in other puzzle game apps) when I correctly join them they don’t stay joined together to move as one “block” as one would do in regular puzzles or other puzzle apps. That aside, the pieces move more easily in the sister “Patterned” puzzle app.

The more I play, the more I enjoy these puzzles.

Each set of puzzles tells a simple story that is very enjoyable. Beautifully crafted puzzle pieces that are just challenging enough to be interesting without being frustrating

Catastrophique

Design superbe. Les illustrateurs ont produit un très beau travail, mais… l’application plante une fois sur deux au démarrage, quand ce n’est pas tout le temps. De plus, elle fait également planter la carte son du iPad. Les redémarrages deviennent de plus incontournables. Dommage…

This is a great game!☺️😊😁

This game is awesome! It has great puzzles that are famous art pieces. It’s very calming and fun. I sow and an hour before bed to get me calm and it keeps my brane moving with its tricky puzzles. No anyoing adds jest plane puzzles. You have to get it and try it out.😊😁

Puzzles not loading

I love this game but the puzzles are not loading unless I enable the background layer mode. Please fix so I can keep playing.

Would give more stars if settings were better

I really like this App, but find the background very difficult to see. Especially when light areas are highlighted on the grayscale background. White writing in those highlights are also very difficult to see even when you zoom. Option for accessible contrasting colours would be helpful. When I merge the background it does darken but lose the story. With these fixes would give 5 ⭐️

Magical
