Mazzle: iphone ipad ipod touch puzzle app


Mazzle is similar to other puzzle apps. The object is to arrange all the colors into squares. This is done by shifting rows & columns.

There are 3 levels. The image above shows the medium & hard levels. Notice that each square is unique, so this is harder than the other versions.

Question: is it possible to exchange to adjacent squares?

  2. I think it's not possible to switch just 2 pieces. However, I think that it's possible to solve this by swapping the top left color with the bottom right color. That should take care of the parity issue.

  3. ok, got it:
    for medium level, when two tiles in the last row on the right have to be changed (yellow tiles):
    row 4: 2 left
    col 2: 1 down
    row 4: 2 right
    col 2: 1 up
    row 4: 1 right
    now yellow is fixed, green is mixed, then:
    col 2: 1 down
    row 4: 1 right
    col 2: 1 up
    row 4: 1 left
    now it is solved...

    thanks for your answer...
