Strange Jigsaws centers on solving unusual jigsaw puzzles, with roughly 50 puzzles described as having their own surprising ways to be solved. Its premise extends beyond assembling familiar picture pieces: the game invites players to explore puzzle worlds themed around jigsaws, gathered under the playful idea of entering the “Jigsawverse.” That framing gives the puzzles a shared, offbeat setting rather than presenting them simply as a collection of conventional boards.
The game is described as a spiritual sequel to 20 Small Mazes and somewhat harder than that earlier title. Keyboard and mouse are recommended, while the listed features also include full controller support. Accessibility is part of the design: the game identifies itself as color-blind friendly, offers a colorblind-mode toggle on each of its two color-based puzzles, and provides separate subtitle tracks for background music, sound effects, and voices. Some puzzles require knowledge of English, a relevant consideration for players choosing a puzzle game around language-dependent clues.
Strange Jigsaws is listed as single-player, so its puzzle-solving format is designed around an individual player rather than a shared multiplayer session.
