Van Gogh's Masterpiece Jigsaw Puzzles

I am working on this off and on, but I really enjoy it for relaxing. It's not difficult, (are different sizes you can make the pieces if you want i.e size of puzzle) but as this is one of my favorite artists, I couldn't say no. It's meant to be a chill, relaxing experience and this 100% delivers on that. Doing a little looking, it seems these images are AI-generated to be similar to Van Gogh, depending on how you feel about that, will sway your opinion. At the bottom of the page for me: AI GENERATED CONTENT DISCLOSURE The developers describe how their game uses AI Generated Content like this: Discover 16 unique puzzle images crafted by AI in the game. And explore AI-generated banners and capsules on the game page. If that is a deal breaker, then I recommend staying away.

Seems pretty nice. The art is interesting, not Van Gogh, but apparently Van Gosh-esque, created by AI. One of my big complains with other jig-saw offerings on steam is when pieces can't be connected to each other, they only pop into place on the frame. This one does not do that, we can put smaller pieces together and they stick, and I prefer that. The main shortcut we get on the normal level is that all the pieces are right-side up, and that's okay by me. The easy level also had a faded version of the picture in the background, which is a bit too easy for me, but I can see how that would be nice for others. Conversely, when you play on normal, the game does not seem to have a way to see the picture, which would be a nice thing. You can save the game, and reload it though, which is handy. All in all, a decent low-price jig-saw puzzle game. It's only (I think) 16 pictures, but one can always hope they will add a few more. On thumb up. ADDENDUM: I've got a few more hours under my belt, and I don't like it as much as I did, though it is still a thumb up, barely. The UI is irritating, with buttons often in the way of play, or pieces ending up behind them. Also on several occasions I finished a puzzle, but no check mark appeared, and I think I might not have gotten the achievement. The layout of the start screen is irritating, and you have to work to find the next painting. Instead of pages, it is one long line. I have mentioned a few of these in the comments, but the developers are either not around or don't care. I am right on the line on this one, and would certainly not buy anything else by these people.

Not a single Jigsaw Puzzle included a real Van Gogh piece, just a bunch of AI Generated Junk and or actual works done by other people inspired by Van Gogh..

I've given this a thumbs up overall because for the money I spent and the enjoyment I got out of it I think it's worth it however there were a few frustrations that put me on the fence about the thumbs up. Mostly because the 'scatter shot' approach to other games by this Dev make me think it just about churning out as much as possible with the love and attention some of the other small Developers put in. The Good: Beautiful images (good for us as players, but I'm not really giving credit to the Devs there as AI has done all the work). Simple game play, nice drag and drop, and the pieces click together anywhere on the table like a real jigsaw. Different modes give an interesting mix of play. Easy provides a faded image to work over and the number of pieces option makes this good for most ages. Very reasonable price point (especially on offer) for the time you can spend playing it it's well worth the cost. Simple and relaxing. It does exactly what I wanted it to. Spend a little bit of time here and there with a relaxing jigsaw. The Bad: Just a general lack of thought in the layout. The 'Solve' button is slapped in the lower middle part of the play area and has more than once got in the way and I've accidentally hit it and ended the puzzle. This should at least have been put to the side with the other buttons, and for preference all buttons should be outside the play area. The background wood effect pattern is not the best choice to look at against the pieces. I get it's better looking than just a plain block colour but it doesn't help identify the bits. Fade it out a bit maybe or give a choice of backgrounds. No full screen is just strange, possibly this is on me if I just haven't found where this option is hidden, but it should run full screen by default I think.

Quite a fun and relaxing game for when you just want to relax.

Il gioco in sé è molto bello, però ci sono molti bug. Mi sono piaciuti molto i dipinti, come quello di Van Gogh nello spazio. Spero che in futuro aggiungano più contenuti e risolvano i problemi attuali. Il mio voto è 3,9/5.
