Countdown!

Uncover and unscramble the image in 30 steps or less!

Free download for Windows 10 64 bit here!

Click a tile to select it. Click another tile to swap them (and uncover them if they are hidden). Watch the counter…do not let it get to zero!

When a tile is “fenced in”, it is in its proper place and can no longer be selected.

When all tiles are fenced in, you have the complete image and you win the round! You can then play another round with a new image.

If the countdown reaches zero before you finish, you lose the game. You can start over at level 1.
