Just like table jigsaw!

The puzzle solving is so much like doing a table jigsaw - you even have the opportunity to sort pieces into groups. I love it. The only thing is that installing the updated directX drivers as a seperate step did take 2 or 3 extra minutes before I could begin solving the first puzzle.

If this had been my first computer jigsaw puzzle game, I would not have purchased another. I found it difficult to use, and the pictures appear to have been taken from the game creator's personal photo album. The photography's not very professional, and they're not particularly interesting photos to piece together. I'd rather spend a little more money and get a Puzz-3D game.
I can't stop playing.

I love this puzzle collection. There are a large variety of puzzles to do (and you can import your own pictures to use as a puzzle-which I haven't tried yet). You can set the number of pieces from only a few to thousands. The instructions are very clear. It is easy, fun and highly addictive for anyone who loves to do jigsaw puzzles. I have tried other jigsaw puzzles on the market and nothing tops this one.

I do not like this software. You cannot resize the puzzle pieces (they are too large), and you cannot get an entire puzzle on the screen. The pieces do not look like "classic pieces" and there is no way to change them. They are too large on the screen, and this software is definitely not user friendly.
One of the Best Computer Jigsaw Games

I bought this item and have been playing it for months now, not yet tired of it. I tried another puzzle product, but this one is by far the best. I liked it so much that I Bought a second one and put it in at work. I only wish it had more pictures to do puzzles. Don't bother with any of the others, this one is the one for anyone who loves jigsaw puzzles. The other one I bought didn't have the square outline. I didn't know where to begin and have even forgotten the name of it. It was so difficult that I never use it. "Great Jigsaw Puzzles" is exactly that, GREAT. I just wish it had more pictures to choose from, though there are quite a few and I haven't done them all yet. Great Product. I highly recommend it.

I found the software easy to install and use. However, the pictures WERE as if taken from someone's personal photo album and very boring. The fun begins when importing pictures and making your own puzzle libraries. The options for doing this are endless and, with a little experimentation, can provide hours of puzzle-solving madness. Even though I'm an adult, I have always enjoyed jigsaws, but became tired of always having a puzzle on a table, in progress. My seven year old granddaughter loves playing with this software, so I am having to buy another after giving her my disk last week. She can load and save all of her own puzzles without problems or help. The only thing she can't do is download pictures from the internet without adult assistance.

I haven't done jigsaw puzzles for years, but this program is used almost every day. Every pretty picture I see I download to a folder and make a puzzle from it. A great way to analyze a picture. Any color background can be used to help the pieces stand out. A great sedative. Anyone who likes jigsaws will love this!

This is great for anyone who loves jigsaw puzzles. Easy to learn and has a good selection of puzzles with various degrees of difficulty. I only wish they would make a Volume II with even more puzzles to choose from!

I found the quality of the product to be far below average. I have been completely unable to play the puzzles because when it opens I was unable to activate the puzzles. The sound track repeated the thumps over and over and my cursor was frozen. I went through the entire Troubleshooting process to no avail. I feel I wasted my money. I have found to be unsatisfactory.

This is the only jigsaw puzzle I found that has the square outline so you know where to begin. All the others have no square outline to begin the game and you have no idea where to start the puzzle. I have had this for a couple of years now and I wish they'd make a volume two. I have just now discovered how to bring up other pictures to enlarge the library. This is the best jigsaw puzzle out there. You have a choice to have pieces that rotate or don't rotate and any difficulty level you desire. I love it. If I am still playing it after 2 years, you know it's good!!! I wish Wizard Works would make more of these.
