Hi again!

On this page there is the (incomplete) description of X-plosive Jigsaw Puzzles Pro. If you're wondering where is the complete description: it's in the game's help file.

Down the page you'll find a game description, its features, a quick start guide, the demo download and the system requirements. You should begin downloading the demo now and read while it's running...

By the way: anybody got a mirror?

X-plosive JigSaw Puzzles Pro is a Windows game designed with the professional puzzle player in mind. Trough this game I tried to offer you all the tools a professional game should offer. I'll also introduce you some new tools, never seen before in other games. To get all the details please read the features section.

Some of the best things in this game are:

  • the wide working area that will give you room to breathe even if you have a lot of pieces
  • the excellent scrolling system that allows you to scroll by dragging the background (real easy)
  • the three-state pins are really useful and easy to handle (difficult to explain in words, you have to see it)
  • the loupe doesn't follow the mouse annoying you every step of the way; it sits tight in its spot
  • you get a lot of add-on jigsaw puzzles at no additional cost (a total of 400 jigsaw puzzles)

And since the Pro version is sometimes too overwhelming for beginners I split it into two versions: the Lite version and this Pro version. If you are playing a jigsaw puzzle game for the first time and you aren't looking for any exquisite features I suggest that you should try the Lite version first.

A longer testimonial from a professional puzzler

Hide the entire testimonial...

Cliff jigsaw puzzles screenshot Gregory J. Nashif: I HAVE PLAYED nearly every jigsaw game available for the PC. While they vary in look and design, the gameplay is generally the same. Fairly decent and average. You spend your twenty-five bucks, download the products, get some fairly decent pics, around 50 in a single category, then go online and see many more puzzle packs available for another twenty-five bucks a pop.

But then, along comes Crea-Soft's X-plosive Jigsaw, the most different and creatively designed puzzle in this genre I have ever seen for the PC. From the opening menu to the different environments, this jigsaw X-plodes onto your screen in vibrant colors, creative backgrounds and sheer artistry.

Features include a puzzle cutting tool, which is actually very fun to use, it almost becomes a game in itself. One of the more unique features of this game, is the actual game board, one of the more annoying things about jigsaws, is that you run out of room or have to use those annoying boxes, but in the Xplosive jigsaw, they have a scroll effect which is unique, scrolling from all four sides, up or down, right or left, thus doubling the play field without affecting the game.

There are many options, the ability to rotate etc. That make this game worth while, plus the new game packs by Crea-Soft, can be downloaded FREE OF CHARGE! even from within the jigsaw software. That to me makes it really worth the price pay. Plus the excellent customer service I received, impressed the "bejeebers" out of me as well.

With Crea-Soft's X-plosive jigsaw, and its ability to use your own pictures as well, you will never need to buy another Jigsaw puzzle again. Oh yeah, future updates and changes to his game, are free. So what are you waiting for, free updates, free support, free additional puzzle packs. A customer couldn't ask for anything else. Or could he?

Thanks for the good work Crea-Soft and feel free to share this recommendation with anyone you want to.

I did not make up this testimonial. That is probabilly what you are thinking right now, but I didn't. Initially I asked Gregory for a 2-3 phrases testimonial... Imagine my surprise when I found in the mail more than a page! But by all means, don't take my word for it, and don't take Gregory's word for it! Try the demo, compare it to the other jigsaw puzzle games and see for yourself!
