There’s not really a lot more I can say about Pixel Puzzles 2: Space. I can’t help but feel that this kind of game would likely be better off on a mobile store- Pixel Puzzles 2: Space would work so much better on a tablet than it does on Steam. Using the mouse to manually click and drag puzzles pieces is monotonous, so a touch input would make this process much less annoying. I will say that this experience is going to benefit from those using some form of touchscreen device.

Which begs the question, how long would you want to sit at your PC screen solving jigsaw puzzles on your own? I found myself getting rather bored after just a few hours of playing it for review. On the flipside, the social element of jigsaw puzzles has always been one of the biggest draws, so digitizing this experience it makes it much more solitary. Although there are probably far better low effort games out there for you to waste your time with, and there’s probably hundreds of them on Steam. I can kind of see why some people might enjoy the “low effort” approach to jigsaw solving, it’s something you could probably stick on whilst watching TV, or even while you catch up on a recent podcast. It looks incredibly clunky and doesn’t really serve any purpose other than making you aware that there are other jigsaw games you can buy. It’s similar to those Mega Drive and Dreamcast emulators that can be purchased on Steam, but much worse. The game comes with some weird program that involves the Steam Store, showing the developers other jigsaw games. There’s also a little guy in a spacesuit floating around for some reason, it serves no real purpose and actually makes identifying jigsaw pieces a lot harder. There’s some weird stuff with rockets and a launch pad around the border of the jigsaw puzzles. The game doesn’t look that great, everything has a cheap feeling to it much like the shoddy puzzle board your nan picks up for you at a carboot sale. The game comes with a few different options, you can turn Vsync off if you wish and you can also turn the “HD” graphics off, although I‘m not sure why you would ever do this. Some puzzles are a small 60 piece affair whilst some others max out at around 300 pieces.

There’s around 25 puzzles to be solved overall, all with varying amounts of difficulty. The pieces then float around outside the jigsaw area, much to my annoyance as seeing them static would make it much less of a jarring experience. The game will show the image temporarily, before fading away leaving you to solve it.

You click and drag the pieces into play and rotate them with a right click. Gameplay involves solving jigsaw puzzles- once the jigsaw is solved a lovely picture will appear, rewarding you for your patience. Pixel Puzzles 2: Space takes all the fun of physical puzzle solving and condenses it into your laptop screen- much less mess and far less sociable.

I’ve never been one for jigsaw puzzles, I honestly thought the only reason people did them in the past was due to a lack of entertaining things, like TV and music or basically anything else that isn’t a jigsaw puzzle.
