Software Reviews and Criticism

  Improved, but still a problem

  I like the pictures they provide and that I can use my own as well, and there is a nice selection of piece sizes. I still find two problems, the worst is grabbing the pieces, more often than not I will put the cursor on a piece to drag only to find that I am moving a different piece. Sometimes its that their is a piece hidden under the one I was trying to grab, but sometimes I will click on a piece and another one that is right next to it (not even touching) will move. I don’t use the timer, but if I did this would be more than just annoying. The second problem is scattering the pieces, if I have the preview open then the scatter pieces shouldn’t move behind the preview, again if using the timer this would be. big annoyance. But worse than that is when the pieces scatter on top of each other, even when there is room for that not to happen. Why is this a problem? Because of the first problem, grabbing a piece that you see usually results in moving the piece underneath, not the piece you think you’re grabbin.

  New Pc Owner

  I have completed most Jigsaw levels on my first generation iPad 5 which cannot be updated. My browser on my old Windows Vista desktop kept sending me messages that it would not be able to continue to provide support after a certain date. So, I decided to breakdown and purchase a new PC. At first, I thought I wouldn’t be able to get a Jigsaw app for the PC. My first search only brought up Jigsaw puzzles for the iPad or iPhone. However, a persistent search brought up a menu for Pc apps, and I purchased Jigsaw Puzzles Epic for my Windows. I could not be more satisfied. I have a 15” PC and the resolution of the puzzles is beyond awesome, and the menu directions are unbelievably easy to access and use. I still have that old Windows Vista running but I think I will be retiring it soon.

  I like more than I thought I would

  I'm not what you would call a jigsaw puzzle enthusiast and havent done any since my 36 year old son was kid. However, I do play word games and solitaire to keep my aging mind sharp. I started out using the default settings (25 pcs) and after serveral puzzles found it was relatively easier and more relaxing than I thought it would be. The controls to move and rotate puzzles work well, although I would like the rotation to go in both directions. The background music is subtly soothing. I hope I never run out of puzzles.

  User friendly, as easy or hard as you want

  I really enjoy this puzzle game. I do have an issue grabbing pieces, I frequently end up with a piece other than the one I wanted. That aside, I have found this to be well thought out. Simple enough for me to figure out and yet it has wonderful features that are actually user intuitive. Perfectly balanced between user friendly and all the options you could want. Having read older reviews, I see that many of their suggestions have been integrated. I myself had a question and submitted it. I received a simple concise answer within 2 days. I will be spreading the good word on this app.
