[Help Thread] 15 Puzzle Discussion

[ProStar]

I'm starting to use fringing, and I keep getting stuck at the 3x3 grid and it will take me like 20 seconds

 

[Deleted member 52530]

So I'm averaging sub 90 on it, using a virtual puzzle. My real life one is so bad. Should I get the qiyi one? And any tips to be sub 1?

Shoot, just got a 37.3!

Yes, you should.

I'm pretty mediocre at 15puzl (used to average 17 on slidysim) but generally you should know immediately which pieces go where (i.e. you should know 1,2,3,4 are the top row and 1,5,9,13 are the left column). Do a hundred solves and it should become second nature. Also, don't stare at the pieces you're solving; look at the pieces you need to solve next.

As far as virtual 15 puzzle goes, keyboard controls are probably easier to get fast at than mouse/touch controls.

Definitely get the Qiyi one. I'm averaging around 25 and am switching to fringing. Right now it's just about solving, I got down to 25 with around 100 solves

You can get sub 20 really fast, just solve it and try to remember what r u doing

I can't find any mobile sims that don't scroll when you do moves. Anybody know a good one?

Fifteen Puzzle Game

Fifteen Puzzle game (15 puzzle-game): move tiles in grid to order them from 1 to 15!

lorecioni.github.io

This is online, though you just press the tile. So you won't need to scroll.

Ayy solved it totally didn't just build the first 3 layers and mess around until I solved it.

Hello

I got really charmed by the 15-Puzzle and I want to get really fast.

I didn't find any tutorial on how to improve your movecount and times, so does anyone of you know some resources?

Thanks for the help

Greetings PixelWizard

use the fringe method,
1 2 3 4, 5 9 13, 6 7 8, 10 14, the rest is trivial
