Knitted Block Slide Puzzle

A colour-matching sliding-block puzzle with a knitting theme

Soft knitted blocks in different shapes and colours fill a board. Each block can slide only along its rows and columns, and leaves the board through the gate of its own colour in the frame. Clearing the blocks finishes the picture being stitched — with a timer on each level.

The product

What it does, and for whom

A relaxing puzzle with real spatial planning: blocks get in each other's way, so the order in which they are slid out matters. Boosters help on harder levels.

Core loop

Solving a level

A level in progress: six knitted blocks on the board, a coloured gate for each in the frame, and a magenta block sliding out through the magenta gate.

  1. Slide a block

    Blocks move along their rows and columns until something stops them.

  2. Find its gate

    Each block leaves through the gate of its own colour in the frame.

  3. Clear the board in time

    Clearing every block completes the level; boosters help when it gets tight.
