Today: a 5 by 5 slide

A photograph cut into 25 squares with one missing, all shuffled. Slide squares into the gap until the picture is whole, the bottom right corner left empty.

About Slide

Slide is a free daily sliding-tile puzzle from Mind Loft, the classic fifteen puzzle grown to a five by five photograph. One square is missing, and you slide the others through the gap until the picture is whole.

Tap any square in line with the gap to slide a whole row or column at once, or use the arrow keys. Every board is checked to be solvable before it ships, and a finished picture ranks on how many squares you moved, then on the clock. The Sunday Edition is six by six.

The photos come from the daily jigsaw, Jig, two weeks earlier. More photo puzzles: Swap and Spin.
