Knockout brackets of 4, 8 or 16 players, a lobby that shows who is online, direct one-to-one matches on the same puzzle and a match history with a one-tap rematch. Coins and trophies are credited to your account.
A challenge ends the moment one player finishes: “You won!” or “You lost!” appears at once, in your language, with a voice. Two players finishing together always get one fair result.
Profile frames, titles, board frames and a signature for the puzzles you share, plus rare prestige items. Every 16 Adventure levels unlock a reward to wear, 32 in all up to level 512, and other players see what you wear.
The daily challenge pays 750 coins once a day, aids cost less on easier puzzles and combo coins come with the first solve of a puzzle.
When you share a puzzle you choose who sees it: everyone, friends or only you. Friends-only puzzles are really for friends, and making one private also disables the links and challenges already sent.
Share a link with your time and moves on WhatsApp: your friend opens it as your challenge. Once the challenge is complete, a VS card with both times and the winner appears in the Community.
Play shared puzzles in your browser on a computer; on an iPhone the link opens the web game too. Swipe through the six pages of the app in a loop: Profile, Home, Reels, Tournaments, Trophies and Leaderboard.
The whole app speaks English, Italian, Spanish, Indonesian, Korean, Russian and Chinese, down to the smallest labels.
In Settings, decide whether other players see your email and whether your challenge results are shared, and check for updates with the list of what is new. Invitations arrive as a thin banner wherever you are.
Add photos from your camera or gallery with a progress bar, share them with an animated preview in seconds, and read verified plays, solves and best times in the statistics and the leaderboard.
Puzzle AR is a free photo puzzle game created by Antonio Rutilio, the Italian architect and civil engineer based in Bali, together with Virtuard. It turns architecture, interior design, art and your own pictures into puzzles you solve against the clock: play online in your browser with nothing to install, or download it free on Google Play for Android.
More than 500 pictures in 17 categories, three difficulty levels from 15 to 35 pieces, a Daily Challenge, live duels and knockout tournaments with players from all over the world: a relaxing brain game for two minutes or for a whole evening, in seven languages.
Six screens of the Android app. The browser version looks and plays the same.
Most puzzle games use the same stock pictures. Puzzle AR starts from the world of its creator: villas, resorts, interiors, materials and light. The Architecture collection shows façades, towers, bridges and famous buildings, and the AR Design collection is made of real projects designed by Antonio Rutilio in Bali, Sumba, Lombok and beyond.
In the Adventure, every level uncovers a piece of an AR Design photo. Sixteen levels later the whole project is yours, with a link to its page on this site: a quiet way to learn to look at buildings and spaces the way an architect does, and to discover the architecture projects behind the pictures.
Some of the projects you can unlock in the game:
Every level cuts a picture into pieces and shuffles them. The rules fit in five steps:
Each category holds 32 pictures. Open one in your browser and start at once:
In the app, choose a photo from your gallery or take one with the camera, and it becomes a puzzle in seconds. A holiday picture, a family portrait, your pet or a building you designed: play it yourself, publish it to the community, share it with friends only or keep it private.
Your photo puzzles keep their plays, solves and best times, and the ones you publish can be played, liked and commented on by other players.
A new Daily Challenge waits for you every day, with a single attempt: get it right the first time to earn its coins.
The Adventure grows harder level after level and unlocks new collections as you go, while coins, levels and trophies keep track of your progress.
When you finish a puzzle, tap Challenge and share a link with your time and moves, on WhatsApp or anywhere else. Whoever opens it plays the same puzzle and finds out who is faster; on a computer the puzzle opens straight in the browser, with nothing to install. A rematch is one tap away.
In the Tournaments section you can see who is playing right now and invite them to a duel: the invitation arrives at once, and every match goes into your history of wins and losses against each rival.
Join an open tournament room in Easy, Medium or Hard and play knockout rounds against other players on the same shuffled puzzle: the better result goes through, round after round, up to the final.
When there are not enough people online, AI players of three levels fill the bracket, so a tournament can always start. The winners earn coins and trophies.
Browse the community feed, like and comment on puzzles, search for players and follow them. Plays, solves and best times are shown on every puzzle, and the world leaderboard ranks players by level, time and trophies.
Spend your coins in the Shop on frames, boards and titles that show on your profile, and share your profile as a video story on Instagram, Facebook or TikTok.
Puzzle AR is free to download on Google Play, and the browser version is free too: open it on a computer, a tablet, an iPhone or an Android phone, start as a guest and play at once.
