Swap the glass pieces and restore every glowing window

Glowpane Puzzle is a relaxing stained glass jigsaw for the browser. Every level is a glowing picture cut into square glass pieces and mixed up: drag one piece onto another and the two swap places.

Pieces that land next to their true neighbours fuse with a line of light and move as one group. There are 50 levels in 5 chapters with their own backgrounds, and finishing at or under par gives 3 stars and an extra hint.

How to play Glowpane Puzzle

  1. Pick the next level on the home screen or on the chapter map.
  2. Drag a piece onto another to swap them; pieces in the right place fuse into groups.
  3. Restore the whole window in as few moves as possible to earn 3 stars.

Modes: Single player, 50 levels in 5 chapters

  • Swap and fuse

    Two pieces swap places when you drop one on the other; matching neighbours fuse and move together.

  • 50 levels, 5 chapters

    Spring Meadow, Coral Lagoon, Autumn Woods, Winter Night and Golden Savanna, 10 windows each.

  • 3 stars for the par

    Every level has a par. Finish at or under it for 3 stars and +1 hint.

  • Hints and Peek

    A hint makes one correct move; Peek shows the whole picture while you hold it.

  • Chapter map

    One page per chapter with its own background; locked chapters can be viewed before they open.

  • 14 languages

    The interface comes in 14 languages, with music, sound effects, vibration and a reduced motion option.

Glowpane Puzzle works on phones and computers, upright or sideways; turning the device during a level keeps the moves already made.

Tips: Glowpane Puzzle

  1. Start with the corners and edges: their pieces are the easiest to recognise.
  2. Move a fused group as one: the pieces in its way slide into the cells it leaves.
  3. Hold Peek to see the finished picture before you plan the next swaps.
  4. Save hints for the big windows; every 3-star level gives one back.
