Sliding Puzzle

Slide the tiles into the empty space and complete the puzzle.

How to Play

Slide the Tiles into the Empty Space

Select a tile to slide it toward the empty space in the same row or column. You can select a tile farther away to move several tiles at once, not just the tile next to the empty space.

Each Tile Moved Counts as One Move

If one action moves three tiles, it counts as three moves. You can aim for fewer moves or simply enjoy solving the puzzle at your own pace.

Watch the Shuffle or Memorize It

Full Shuffle shows every move as the solved puzzle is shuffled. Hide the helper numbers, memorize the sequence, and try solving it by reversing the moves.

Help When You Get Stuck

Helper Numbers show where each tile belongs. Help Navigation resets the puzzle to its starting board and then guides you through the tiles to move until the puzzle is complete.

Tips

Start with 3×3 and Helper Numbers

Start with a small board to get a feel for how tiles slide into the empty space. With helper numbers on, it is easier to solve the puzzle row by row from the top.

Try Not to Disturb Solved Sections

Once a row is complete, look for routes that leave it untouched. A common approach is to treat the final two rows as a set.

Use Help Navigation If You Get Stuck

It shows a sequence that will solve the puzzle from the starting board. Try predicting the next board before each move to better understand how the puzzle works.
