Jigsaw (Puzzle Round)
Fifty pieces, one shared photo every day.
Every day: One 50-piece photo jigsaw a day: the game says everyone gets the same picture each UTC day. Pieces come the right way up; correct pieces lock in place. New puzzle: Midnight UTC.
Jigsaw is Puzzle Round's daily photo puzzle. A new photograph each day is cut into 50 interlocking pieces, the same picture for every player. Drag the pieces into place, start with the edges if you like, and peek at the reference picture whenever you need it.
About Jigsaw (Puzzle Round)
Jigsaw is the newest game in Puzzle Round's lineup, added in late September 2026. Each day one photograph is cut into 50 interlocking pieces on a board of 5 rows and 10 columns, and the game states that everyone gets the same picture each UTC day.
The picture appears whole for a moment before the pieces burst apart into a tray; the opening can be skipped. Pieces are already the right way up, so you only need to find where each one goes. Drag a piece onto the board, or select a piece and then tap its spot; correct pieces lock in place. An Edges only filter helps you build the border first, and the reference picture can be shown or hidden at any time. Keyboard play works too.
The changelog says the daily photos are drawn from Wikimedia Commons featured pictures, mostly landscapes, with the photographer, source and licence shown, and that images from the previous 30 puzzles are not repeated. It is the calmest game on the site and a change of pace from the logic grids.
Puzzle Round is a free website of short daily puzzles by thatsoftwaredude, an independent developer. Every player gets the same puzzles each day, a countdown on the site runs to the next midnight UTC, and each game keeps its own daily leaderboard ranked by solve time. You can play without signing up; a free account saves your result to the leaderboard and keeps your streak, and private Circles let a family or a group of friends compare results. Clearing the whole lineup in a day counts as a Perfect Day.
