What is the application for?

The application serves as a tool for entertainment and mental challenge. Its main objective is to allow the user to arrange numbered tiles in sequential order (from 1 to 15, or according to the chosen grid size) by sliding them into an empty space. The game concludes when all numbers are aligned from left to right and top to bottom, leaving the empty space in the bottom-right corner.

What does it solve?

From the player's perspective, the application solves the logical challenge of reordering a board that has been randomly shuffled. It provides a structured environment with clear rules where the user can apply strategies—such as solving the top row first and then the leftmost column—to complete smaller sub-grids until the puzzle is finished.

Why should you use it?

There are several reasons why this application is engaging:

• Variety of levels: It allows you to change the puzzle size between 3x3, 4x4, and 5x5, adjusting the difficulty to the user's preference.
• Performance tracking: It includes a moves counter that tracks how many steps it takes you to solve the puzzle, which is ideal for those looking to improve their efficiency.
• Ease of start: It features a Shuffle button to instantly mix the tiles and start a new game at any time.
• Accessibility and support: It is a free application (which accepts donations to stay that way) and is designed as a PWA (Progressive Web App), making it easy to access and share.
