Pieces is a new take on Jigsaw puzzles by mixing it with Tetris. Players take pieces of a jigsaw and fit them into the proper outlines on the puzzle to form a picture. Players can compete in the Jigsaw Mode which allows up to five friends to compete against each other, by taking turns, in a race against time depending upon the difficulty setting (four total). Players can also compete against the computer, complete with power-ups that can help the player such as "Sweeper" which takes away half of their opponents completed puzzle. There are eight different categories of puzzles to choose from ranging from sports themes to global locations, each with eight puzzles ranging 36 to 60 pieces in size.

Additional Information

Pieces takes the traditional jigsaw puzzle and updates it with all of the bells and whistles typically associated with a video game, including special items, multiple difficulty levels, support for up to five players and three modes of play. You can compete against the computer or a friend, with the goal being to finish a puzzle (or set of puzzles) before your opponent. If you decide to challenge the computer, you will face eight increasingly challenging opponents in a race to complete three pictures. Random items will appear during the puzzle, which can help you complete your goal or hinder your opponent.

In total, there are eleven items which range from Search (gives away the location of three pieces at the top of the screen) to Sweeper, which will "sweep" away half of your opponent's fitted pieces. Jigsaw Mode allows up to five players to compete against one another for points. There are no special items in this mode, and the difficulty can be set to one of four levels. Depending on the difficulty, you may have a time limit, trick pieces or a miniature solution to follow. Puzzles can be selected from eight genres (such as "The World" or "Sports"), each with eight puzzles ranging from 36 to 60 pieces in size.
