Jigsaw puzzles have been around since the 18th century. Solving such a puzzle is a good way to exercise your wits and it is also an excellent hobby. Puzzlize allows you to turn any digital photo into a puzzle. You can choose the number of pieces, make the puzzle as hard or easy as you want and share the puzzle with your friends.

The application's evaluation version can be used, with a few restrictions, for a limited period of time, after which you must pay for the full version. The installation file is only 4 MB and the setup procedure is straightforward. This means that you can have Puzzlize up and running in a matter of seconds.

When launched, the application will automatically load a puzzle on its clean and simple interface. You can either start solving the puzzle right away or select a different one. Puzzlize comes with its own images and you can select one of them and choose the number of pieces on a separate window. Alternatively, you may browse for one of your own pictures and turn it into a puzzle right away.

If you load your own images, Puzzlize will resize them automatically, so they will always fit on the interface. Besides that, there is no need to back up your original pictures, because the application will not alter them in any way. Besides selecting pictures and a number of pieces, the application allows you to create stand-alone puzzles. They are saved as .exe files, which can be launched on any computer. Additionally, you can type a message, which will appear if a person solves your puzzle.

Puzzlize comes with a built-in timer as well. When you finish a puzzle, the application tells you how long it took to solve it. A preview of the original picture is available on the same interface. If you have difficulties, you may click the Assist button, located beneath the preview, to highlight the pieces that are placed incorrectly.

Pros

You can turn your own pictures into jigsaw puzzles and choose the number of pieces. Puzzles can be saved as executable files, so you can share them with your friends. The application comes with a timer and an assistant, so you may always know how long it takes to solve a puzzle and which pieces are placed in the wrong positions.

Cons

You can only create puzzles with square pieces. Puzzlize enables you to create your own puzzles, make them as easy or difficult as you want and share them with your friends and family.
