- Jigsaw 2 for Windows
- Version 2.12
- (Updated 5/14/95)
-
- PROGRAM DESCRIPTION
- -------------------
- Jigsaw 2 for Windows is a jigsaw puzzle simulation. You solve the puzzle by
- dragging and dropping the puzzle pieces with a mouse. The puzzle pieces have
- the traditional interlocking shapes, and the pieces lock together when
- properly arranged. A color picture is formed when the puzzle is fully
- assembled.
-
- The computer takes care of the mundane tasks, like finding all the edge pieces
- and sorting pieces by color. You can save your work in progress and return to
- it later, so this jigsaw puzzle won't tie up your kitchen table. And unlike
- traditional jigsaw puzzles, there's never a missing piece!
-
- Several jigsaw puzzles are included, and there is a facility for generating
- new puzzles from bitmap files (.BMP or .GIF), so your favorite images of loved
- ones or whatever can be made into jigsaw puzzles. (The puzzle generation
- feature is only available to registered owners of Jigsaw 2).
-
- System requirements for running Jigsaw 2: IBM-compatible computer
- (80286 or higher) with a Microsoft-compatible mouse, VGA (or higher)
- display, and Windows 3.1.
