About this game

Can you see the whole picture before the board does?

Picture Beads is a relaxing picture puzzle. Every level lays puzzle pieces out like beads on a board — trace a line through the ones that belong together, and watch each picture snap back into its frame, one trace at a time.

Several pictures hide on every board, and each level keeps to a single theme, so the pieces always belong together. Slide your finger across neighbouring tiles — up, down, sideways or diagonally — to string every piece of one picture into a single trace. Collect it, and its tiles open up: empty slots become bridges your next trace can cross, and the board slowly turns from a wall into a road.

Deeper in, the boards learn new tricks. Some tiles are stacked like little decks — collect the piece on top to uncover what’s hidden beneath. Some pictures wait behind a lock and open only in order. The pictures share colours and moods on purpose, so a sharp eye and a moment of planning beat a fast finger every time.

No timers. No lives. No fail state at all — however you play, a way to finish the board always remains. When a level goes quiet on you, the lightbulb uncovers the next steps of a real route, never a spoiler of the whole thing.

✦ HOW IT PLAYS

- Every level is one theme — the pictures always belong together
- Swipe across neighbouring tiles, straight or diagonally
- Gather every piece of a picture in one trace to send it home
- Cleared tiles open the board — later traces can cross the gaps
- Stacked tiles hide pieces underneath; locked pictures open in order

✦ WHAT YOU GET

- A long main journey of handcrafted levels, with new ones added regularly
- Boards that grow from gentle first steps to layered, locked, HARD puzzles
- A hint that lights the next pieces of a real route, three at a time
- Coins you earn by playing, spent on hints when a board goes silent
- Clean, calm interface: soft tiles, gentle sounds, nothing flashing

✦ WHO IT’S FOR

- Jigsaw and picture puzzle players
- Tile-matching fans who want something gentler
- Anyone building observation, planning and focus without a timer
- Adults looking for ten calm minutes after work or before bed
- People who’d rather finish a picture than climb a leaderboard

Trace the tiles. Gather the pieces. Take your time.
