Pieces (Super Nintendo, 1994)

Pieces is a jigsaw puzzle solving video game for the SNES. That might not sound like much, but I figure most people haven't played it. Single player is what it is: Race the computer in increasing levels of difficulty to finish a puzzle. Multiplayer, on the other hand, is awesome. Play with two to five players (with multitap). Two players can each individually make the same series of puzzles against each other while gaining power ups that either help themselves or wreck the other players chances. Up to five players can work on the same puzzle, gaining points for placing the pieces correctly. For my friends, this is now THEE party game. Shoving, swearing, and general ruckus follow in the wake of Pieces. If you like games like Mario Party, Wario Ware, or Fusion Frenzy but love the crappy graphics and oh-so-hip appeal of SNES games, get Pieces.

My grandmother and I use to play this game during my childhood. It is a very fun jigsaw-puzzle game, with special features and competitions to keep it very interesting. Highly recommend! FUN SNES GAME!

Multiplayer SNES puzzle game. Good family fun.
Up to three players compete to complete jigsaw puzzles.
Good for all ages, and is fun against the computer or with a group.

Pieces is a fun game in which you have to finish puzzles before your opponent does. Before the round starts, you are shown the image that you are supposed to complete. At the bottom of the screen are some of the pieces of the puzzle; you have to drag them to the correct place. Every time you put a piece in the right place your special meter increases. This allows you to use power-up which include: a paint brush that wipes away some of your opponent’s pieces, a tool that directs you to where the piece that you are holding goes, and many more. The single player mode is very entertaining, as is the multi-player.

Highly recommended for Super Nintendo owners and fans of puzzle games.

- Unique puzzle game
