Scatter & Snap
A calm jigsaw game: pick a picture or your own photo, scatter the pieces and snap them back together.
ABOUT
Scatter & Snap is a calm, tactile jigsaw puzzle game for the browser. Pieces are dealt around a frame on a felt table, and pieces that belong together snap into each other and into the frame.
Free Play offers 31 built-in pictures or your own photo, with Easy 24, Medium 54, Hard 96 or Expert 150 pieces and optional rotating pieces. Every puzzle gets a new random cut.
The Postcard Trail is a story mode with twelve postcards from Aunt Wren, from 12 to 96 pieces. Each finished card reveals her handwritten note and opens the next one.
Tools help when you need them: show edge pieces only, a picture hint, Tidy to sort pieces into rows, Scatter to spread them again, and zoom. On a touch screen, several people can drag different pieces at the same time.

The Postcard Trail adds a quiet story that gives a reason to keep going, while Free Play and your own photos make it endlessly replayable.
