When your developer is Tiny Little Lion, it should not come as a surprise to discover that your content will feature numerous examples from the animal kingdom.  In the case of Puzzle - Escapes, this animal kingdom content is found within an environment of puzzle creation and solving activity.  Based on the concept used in a number of earlier titles from the company, the Puzzle - Escapes offering lets you create the conditions that govern your actions with the solving process.

Prior to tackling the various puzzles presented by this game, you can make various selections relating to its playing environment.  Options are available to select the game's resolution and audio volume levels for music and sound effects.  While the option to select a language limits you to just English, you do get the chance to select from a choice of background colour and opt for shadows to be included as you set about completing the Jigsaw and Swap puzzles which make up this game.

This title provides you with 125 pictures featuring a wide range of different creatures.  To help ease your choice making, these images have been split into categories such as Canines, Felines, Avian, Aquatic, Equines and Lepidoptera.  There are also categories for Capture Wild and Custom with the latter containing images from your own collection which, I suppose, might include some humans and maybe your favourite food or beverage.

Having made your initial selection of your image choice, you can open up a series of additional choices.  First you need to decide whether the image will be used to create a jigsaw or swap puzzle.  You can then decide on a choice of different shapes used for the available pieces or, in the case of a Swap puzzle, if the strips are presented in Vertical or Horizontal orientation plus the number of pieces in the puzzle.  Further options allow you to add a rotation attribute and the amount of hints available when solving the puzzle.

When solving the presented puzzle, you will be provided with various tools which can be used when required.  A completed puzzle will then be shown along with the time taken and a snippet of "Did you Know" information that you may find appealing.

This combination of Jigsaw and Swap puzzles with an animal theme can be downloaded from Gamehouse.com where it is priced at $9.99 or from Big Fish Games priced at £7.28.  The game requires a 2.0 GHz processor with 4096 of RAM and 484MB of hard disk space running Windows 7 and later.
