This is a very relaxing and peaceful game with a sweet story. The story is told in five parts, each one illustrated with a charming hand-drawn style picture that make up the game's puzzle content. The related part of the story appears after you complete the puzzle.
Each puzzle comes in 3 size versions which also provides players with 3 levels of challenge. Puzzle enthusiasts will enjoy all of them. There are no time limits and hints are available if you get stuck.
The 16 achievements can all be earned in a single play-through. 15 are earned when you complete each of the puzzles in all 3 sizes. The last one is earned when you complete all five puzzles once and get to read the whole storyline.
The nicest touch in this game is that you get to download the images used in the puzzles. They're lovely.
I'd recommend this game for anyone who enjoys jigsaw puzzles and sweet animal stories with happy endings.

On the second puzzle size, I zoomed in and the buttons(icons) on the top become located on the canvas where you're supposed to complete the puzzle. The problem is I pressed the shuffle button the second time. It's located that way, makes it impossible to play. And the pictures are not that good for people with bad eyesight.

Cute and relaxing game. The story is about a cat finding his new home and family. There are 5 puzzles with 3 difficulty levels, and an achievement for each so you can 100% this if you wanted to. The only minor bug I've encountered is where two puzzle pieces may stick together. It's a little annoying but easily solved once you drag the puzzle piece to its correct place the two automatically unstuck. The price tag is low enough but for 5 puzzles, if you're not going to play it right away you can probably wishlist it and see if a sale comes along

the pieces don't snap even if they're next to each other, they've to be right on top, even if few pixels off it won't work resulting in having to re-do them and constantly trying different options due to appearing incorrect

This is a short and sweet puzzle game with a little plot about adopting a homeless cat. 5 puzzles with three modes each for a total of 15 plays. The easiest mode is 80 pieces and the hardest is 360 pieces.
Pros:
Adorable drawing style. I even laughed at the cat in the bath (so mad!). Sometimes the character proportions are a bit funky (everyone is like 65% leg) but since I can't draw I have no right to critique anyone who can
Snap-to-grid and pieces-stick-to-each-other both work well and make this fun to play
Chill music with volume controls
Cons:
My only major complaint is that all the pieces are scrabbled into a big pile on either side of the puzzle board, so you really have to dig deeply before you can even begin assembling. Maybe if the not-board play area was bigger there would be more room for assembly out there.
small stuff: the wiggly background was mildly annoying. Would be nice to be able to toggle that on and off. Sometimes the connection between pieces is a little finicky. This was particularly true for the easy mode --they had to be lined up quite well to stick together. They'll still snap to the grid, though, so it doesn't really affect the game play. After you finish the final puzzle, the game automatically scrolls the credits. Slowly. This happened all three times I played the level (once in each mode; I am a completionist) and there was no way to skip or make them scroll faster so that I could play another puzzle right away. It was a little tedious so I ended up forcing the game closed.
Overall: If you like puzzles and cute animals, this is a good one. I will probably replay it in a few months when I need a little something to cheer me up.

There are only 5 puzzles, each of them you can choose from 3 different sizes. The different choices are for the number of puzzle pieces.
Good looking puzzles, and the pieces stick together in the tray.
Good for the price if you like puzzles, or games that are easy to get 100% achievements.

Pretty chill, with really enjoyable art and music (just can be a bit stale if u want to stick for long playthrough)
The only problems i had was one glitch where the pieces stucking into another and not finding some pieces cuz they can blend really well.

This is a feel good chill jigsaw puzzle game. There is a thin story with each puzzle. No timers, Each puzzle has three difficulty levels 81, 196 and 361 pieces. the largest size can be done in around 2-3 hours. Hints are available but totally unnecessary.
The only complaint i had is a lack of option to separate the edges, other than that it was a good relaxing time waster. Highly recommended.

I want to hug both, Pacoca and Panqueca ! The art is perfect, I've been in love with the art since I saw the steam banner and I added in my wishlist at fist time I checked. The game is amazing, the art style combined with the gameplay and the soundtrack provide a feeling of relaxation. I was looking forward for a good jigsaw game that was not only random pictures, but with a backstory, and I'm happy that I found it :D

A really cute story and art about a kind girl and her friendly dog running into a stray cat who looks in a bad way - what they do about it - and the cat's feelings about it all. If the devs could just edit the English translation so you don't cringe when you read it, it would be a perfect jigsaw puzzle game. The music is unique and sometimes a bit odd but I like it. (Except for the last song where they include this noise that sounds like a robot kitty chewing on metal kibbles - I have mixed feelings about that). Each song has a steady rhythm so for fun, I try to place my pieces so the plink sound of putting them in the correct spot matches up with the music. :p All in all, this is a feel good, good time.
