The classic tile puzzle, on your page.
Sliding Puzzle shuffles numbered tiles, or the pieces of any picture in your Media, and players slide them back into order. Tap, swipe or use the arrow keys. The server checks every move and keeps the clock, and the fewest moves (or the fastest time) go top of the leaderboard.
What Sliding Puzzle does for you
3 x 3 to 6 x 6
A minute or two on 3 x 3, the famous "15 puzzle" on 4 x 4, and bigger boards for the patient.
Numbers or a picture
Use numbered tiles, or cut any picture in your Media into tiles. Players can peek at the whole picture.
Always solvable
Every board is shuffled by the server and checked, and never arrives solved or nearly solved.
Same board or a new one
One board for everyone for the fairest leaderboard, or a new board every go so nobody learns the answer.
Tap, swipe or keys
Tap a tile by the gap, or further along to slide several at once. Swipe, or use the arrow keys.
Moves or time
Rank by fewest moves or fastest time. Add a time limit and a limit on goes per name.

A daily puzzle
The same board for everyone, each day
Choose a daily puzzle and everyone gets the same board each day, with a new one at midnight in your site's time. Nobody can see tomorrow's. Goes per name count per day, and the Today leaderboard is today's board only.
Straight answers.
- The board is the server's. Every move is checked there, and a puzzle only counts as solved when the server's own board is solved.
- The board is not sent until the go starts, so nobody plans before the clock runs.
- Players give a name only - no account and no email.
