Review: SPB Puzzle

SPB Software has announced the release of SPB Puzzle, a archetype jigsaw puzzle game for your Windows Mobile, touch screen phone. We received an avant-garde re-create of SPB Puzzle and took it out for a test bulldoze. Follow the break for our impressions and a few screen shots.

In the simplest of sense, SPB Puzzle turns your Windows Mobile touch screen into a jigsaw puzzle table. You can cull from three difficulties (Easy, Medium, and Hard) from pre-loaded puzzles likewise every bit having the choice to download puzzles or create puzzles from your photographs.  The puzzle lath has a faint outline of the pieces to aid y'all in placement. The Easy and Medium levels accept the traditional styled pieces while the Hard level pieces aren't interlocking and the board outlines actually come in handy at this level.

Yous work to solve the puzzle by dragging the pieces around the screen. When yous go the placement just right, the puzzle piece will flash and the phone will vibrate. If you need help past referencing the completed puzzle, you can switch to the completed view then return to the puzzle.

It'southward a squeamish, fourth dimension consuming game but the puzzle screen spans beyond the physical dimensions of your screen (or at least it did on the Fuze). While you can impact scan the total jigsaw screen, you have to find a blank expanse to move the screen. If you touch and swipe on a puzzle piece, you simply move the slice. As an alternative, if you take one, the D-Pad volition gyre around the puzzle field. Information technology would have been overnice if you had a "zoom out" feature to SPB Puzzle and then you could run into the entire field on the screen.

The only other nit that I found with SPB Puzzle was that the scramble puzzle pieces are piled on pinnacle of i another. It takes a scrap of time to flatten out the pile so you tin come across what pieces you have to deal with. On the positive, it does simulate a jigsaw puzzle that's been dumped out of the box really well.

Overall, SPB Puzzle is squeamish but not a "knock your socks off" application that SPB is known for. Patience is the central with this game considering it does take some time to sort the puzzle pieces and to navigate around the full puzzle board. It is nice to be able to turn your photos into puzzles and surprising how difficult solving them tin can be. I do similar the flash/vibration to ostend you've got the correct puzzle piece in the right spot.

At that place's a trial period for the download simply in case you lot're not sure SPB Puzzle is for you.
