Boosts can help you in a variety of ways. To activate boosts, you need to tap on them.
1. The magnet at the top of the tray places 10 random pieces onto the playing board. The magnet is available on all difficulty levels and can be used on iPads and iPhones.
Other available boosts can be found on the Menu panel on the left :
2. The horizontal line button allows you to complete any horizontal row of the puzzle automatically.
3. The vertical line button allows you to complete any vertical row of the puzzle automatically.
Lines can be used only for puzzles starting from the 288-piece difficulty and are available on iPads only.
4. The square button allows you to choose any 3x3 square on the playing board and complete the chosen area automatically. Squares can be used for puzzles of 143 pieces or more and are available on iPads only.
The number next to the boosts shows how many boosts you have. When you run out of boosts, there will be a 'plus' sign next to it, and you'll be able to get more boosts:
1. After watching an ad video
2. Using game coins
A set of 35 magnets can also be purchased with real money.
I just downloaded this but after reading the comments I'm ready to delete it and keep checking to see if the developers ever do anything to fix it or if it's all hot air. I can see why everyone is upset and I agree I don't want to support anyone that treats people this way.
I'll be back if and when this is fixed
Omg people! Just be thankful we live in such a wonderful age of technology that we can work a puzzle like this without dragging out a table and laying all the pieces out. You can carry your puzzle wherever you go. That is amazing enough. If you don't like the boosts, don't use them. Simple as that! Myself, sometimes I'm pretty much "done" with so much solid background color that I'm glad to use a boost just to be done and move on. Yeah, maybe that makes me not a "real" puzzle solver. I love this app!
I love this app, and much regret bad feedback I gave when I first started. The flashing Ads were driving me nuts, and it was an effort to get through the first puzzle. I left it and found the site online and found out how to remove the ads, and have been happy since. The $7.99au was worth it. The Flashing Ads should include one of their own with an ad for the upgrade.
They nearly lost me. (and I love jigsaws)
I find the pricing very erratic. Some jigsaw sets only cost 10 coins and others over 5000.
You can buy other peoples downloads for just 1 coin, then earn at least 2 even on the simplest setting, but generally much more. Good for users but seems a bit pointless.
I really can't understand some of the "rip off" comments. Seems as if you can do unlimited jigsaws at no extra cost (apart from ad removal which includes other things). What do people expect? Who would fund/maintain a "totally free game" if there were no charges for anything.
It can remain totally free indefinitely, or you can pay for more variety if you want it. But seriously, there is so much there, I am struggling to keep up with all the freebies and the very low cost which you can get with just a few coins.
I think the "boost" features are a bit confusing. Personally I would think it would be much simpler to have "silver coins" that can be earned or bought, and used for any of the Boost Features. I am getting the impression looking at all the comments, that many people don't even want boosts, and are complaining about them. If they were able to be spent on other things, and not handed out so freely, they would be more prestigious and wanted.
