Jigsaw by Pagouro

Relaxing Belle Époque jigsaws. No ads, nothing to buy, nothing locked.

A quiet, free jigsaw puzzle game of Belle Époque posters: poplars at sunset, the Eiffel Tower in spring, irises in a tall vase, balloons over Paris rooftops, a black cat on a red cushion. A hundred and sixty pictures, every one drawn by our own AI picture model.

Android, in testing on Google Play now. The public release follows the test. This page will carry the Play Store link the day it does.

A puzzle of purple irises half done, with loose pieces in the tray along the bottom — The tray: swipe a piece up

The finished Eiffel Tower picture with a card reading Finished in 21:37 — Finished

The Help card, a short note about the pictures shown before a hint — Help, without ads

A daily puzzle: the same picture for everyone each day, at the size you like.
Any of the 160 pictures at 12, 25, 49, 100 or 156 pieces.
Two cuts: Whimsical (waving edges, bulbs, caps and arrowheads) or Classic (a traditional die-cut look).
Optional rotation for experts: pieces start turned; tap to turn.

The number is the day's puzzle, so everyone posting the same number did the same picture. It never names the picture, so nobody's puzzle gets spoiled.

About the AI pictures

We want to be plain about this. The pictures were drawn by Pagouro BE, our own AI picture generator. It learned its Belle Époque style from public-domain posters made before 1929, each listed with its source in a public ledger, on top of an open base model trained on Creative Commons-licensed images. Its sources, including the parts we did not train ourselves, are documented on the front page and in its repository. The 160 pictures in the game were picked by hand from more than 1,400 drawings.

Every picture and the music are CC0: yours to keep. The game's code is Apache 2.0 and public: github.com/ericrwade/pagouro-play. Built with Godot, with thanks to Summer Engine, the AI game engine that got us making games.
