What makes Jigsaws Galore the best?
===================================
1. Powerful! Play and create jigsaws from 4 to 4,000 pieces.
2. Easy! Even a complete novice can start solving jigsaws immediately.
The jigsaw preview screen makes finding your favorite jigsaw a snap
and even lets you change the number of pieces in the jigsaw.
3. Full-featured! Automatically arrange pieces around the outside of
the board to leave room to solve the puzzle. Other programs make
you scroll the screen to find a piece. You can never lose a
piece "off screen" with this program! We take away the drudgery
by sorting pieces by shape or color, as you wish. Change the
size of pieces on the fly. Now you can fit all of the pieces on
the board all of the time. And it's so easy to create new
jigsaws! Of course there's flying hints, context sensitive
help, toolbars, status bar, sound and music, as you'd expect.
4. Fun! The jigsaws look (and sound) great. Just like real ones.
Sneaky cheat modes let you flash the piece you're looking for, or
fetch it, or turn pieces the right way up. You can even watch
the jigsaw solve itself.
About the program:
==================
The program requires Windows 95/98/NT or later and the evaluation
version takes around 4MB of disk space when installed. Please
see the game's ordering information for details of how to order a
full version and extra jigsaws, including CD-ROM version with 172
jigsaws and bonus games.
