Slide Puzzle: goal and players
Play Slide Puzzle online on JAWNA at jawna.app. Check the goal and supported player counts before inviting your group. Read the rules even if you know the game: familiar names can have different variants, and your usual house rules may differ from the selected version.
Supported table sizes: 2, 3 or 4 players. Choose a player count in the game settings. In partner variants, check seats and teams first. In individual formats, each player competes for their own result. The in-game How to play screen provides details. Agree on the variant before your first round together.
How to play: rules
- Put the tiles in order, 1 at the top left, reading across row by row, with the gap in the bottom right corner.
- Everyone gets the same shuffle at the same moment and plays at once. The first to finish wins.
- Tap any tile in the same row or column as the gap: it slides toward the gap, and so do the tiles between. Every tile that moves counts as one move.
- In picture mode the tiles make a picture instead; the small corner numbers show the order. Hold Peek to see the finished tray.
- Every shuffle can be solved. A good way: finish the top row, then the next, and do the last two rows column by column.
- You see how far the others are (the share of tiles in place), never their trays.
- When the clock runs out (3, 7 or 12 minutes), everyone is ranked by how many tiles are in place.

History & origins
The 15 puzzle became a major craze in the United States in 1880, using numbered sliding tiles and one empty space.
Its appeal mixed a simple physical toy with mathematical limits: some rearrangements cannot be solved by legal slides.
It later became a standard computer puzzle. Jawna gives players the same solvable shuffle, preserving the sliding challenge while adding direct competition.
