Now with real life gore!Backgrounds are dumb-noisy, and pieces are submerged, which igets pretty irritating, especially on big penguin pattern-like picture. Overall pictures and interfaces are still low-res. Also i can't find any music. There is only one interactive thingy, unlike in japan game. In the end it's the worst jigsaw game they made, but it still no more or less than it is. If you bought this one after checking out screenshots - well, you bough it.. http:\/\/decayinglogic.com\/As you can see for yourself the 3rd in a series of Jigsaw games made by this company.They even have their own website http:\/\/pixelpuzzles.co.uk\/Jigsaws for me is all about having conversation with family, your loved ones, or as a conversation opener. Don't believe me? Go out, buy yourself a jigsaw and set it up on the dinner table and watch as your family start to drop their iphones and begin to tinker with the puzzle. Watch as invited dinner guests quickly gravitate to the open puzzle domain. These people are now vulnerable to being spoken too and often conversation follows. On the other hand jigsaws to me are also a source of frustration as you shake the sofa violently for that missing piece, the dog looks guilty and you know he has eaten the damn thing as it fell from the table thinking it\u2019s a foreign food scrap since your wife's cooking most of time tastes like paper, or your examining the front cover of the jigsaw box like you\u2019re a doctor examining a x-ray about to perform a complicated heart transplant and have convinced yourself that the piece your holding needs to go into the place it\u2019s not going, but just needs a bit of gentle persuasion with a closed pounding fist.Unfortunately you will get none of those experiences with this game. The objective is to complete 25 jigsaw puzzles as the pieces float randomly around the edges. Annoyingly you have to collect crabs too and put them in a basket so you can earn points that give you three cheat options, which will reveal the picture for a few secs, correctly rotate the piece you are holding, or show you where the piece goes. Once you have used your cheat option, you have to collect crabs again to renew that ability.UI isn't exactly friendly, backgrounds of the pictures are often blurred, and the crabs are just annoying gimmick that get in the way, thankfully you can turn them off. Other than that, it's exactly what it claims to be, a jigsaw game featuring bird pictures. What did you expect it to have? Boss fights?Still in this day and age there are now animated jigsaw puzzles, puzzles with murder mysteries or intricate stories to them, and my favourite puzzle, find waldo. This offers none of that than 25 useless pictures about birds with no additional info about the picture or the bird.However, since it is what it says it is and if your a bit of a jigsaw cuckoo then this may be one for you when it goes on sale.https:\/\/youtu.be\/D2RqyIeb1Co. I am extremely disappointed in this version of pixel puzzles. I played Pixel Puzzles: Japan and thoroughly enjoyed it (outside of not being able to easily click the piece you wanted). Seems they fixed that with "Birds", but the background is so horrible I cannot see the pictures. In the pond area where the pieces are floating, there are 6 buttons floating around getting in your way of seeing the pieces plus one ginormous fishing net where you are supposed to drop crabs - that are annoying and run all over your puzzle building space. When you fill up the net, you are supposed to get an award, but they don't seem to work and the crabs have now completely obscured the puzzle pieces floating "below" the net. It is hard enough locating the pieces you need, because they are all mostly blue and they are "under" the water, altering their color slightly, so it is hard to pick the piece you want. There is an option to put a little staging bar at the bottom where you can store pieces, but that also has a craggly, rippled background (as does the building area) which really plays havoc with your eyes. Also, when you put that little staging area there, the pieces floating above the building area are hidden from view. You have to take that away to "find" them again. I tried to take a screenshot of what I am talking about, using the F12 key, but that too seems to be broken. I am so annoyed that I purchased this. It is not fun at all; It is not relaxing at all, and I do not want to play it at all. Boo - hiss devs. Took something great and made it something I'm sorry I purchased.. Pro and Cons at the end for those of you who don't like readingAhh, another serving of Decaying Logic's Pixel Puzzles. This is my second review of a Pixel Puzzles game, my first one being Pixel Puzzles: Japan. I had to give that one a thumbs down due to some glaring issues within the game but with this version I was pleasantly surprised. So, if you love jigsaw puzzles then sit back and I'll tell you a story about how Decaying Logic isn't living up to their name but perhaps should learn what their publisher\u2019s name, KISS Ltd, stands for......First let me begin by saying perhaps I was a bit harder judging on this one. I went in looking for mistakes, expecting them, wanting to find some. To my surprise there are very few and this tells me that perhaps Decaying Logic is listening to their fans and that makes me take notice. When you find a developer that cares about what their fans think and makes honest attempts to make their games better you'd better keep an eye on them because they will be going somewhere soon.The first thing you should know if you've never played any of their other puzzle games is that the pictures in this one are as good as you get with any jigsaw puzzles. There's actually quite a few more offering within this one than in Japan as well. All the pictures in this one fit the "bird" theme so if you\u2019re not a fan of birds I suppose it could be off putting but I'm not going to knock the game for that. The pictures give you quite a bit of challenge in terms of matching up pieces by color but it's not entirely impossible. It gives you a good sense of working a physical jigsaw puzzle on the tabletop.Again in this version the pieces are cut in ways you could never truly cut a physical jigsaw puzzle so that added challenge is left intact which I enjoy. Many of the cuts in this one match the bird theme as well with birds and fish around the edges of the pieces. These funky piece cuttings can raise the difficulty of solving the puzzle up to some frustrating levels but overall I feel it's a positive. Some of us enjoy great challenges.The pieces still once again "swim" in a pond around the main puzzle. This is an innovative and interesting way to present the pieces and probably gives you the best representation of "shaking the puzzle box" as you will ever find.So far the game sounds the same as the last, my review does as well. So where did they get things right?? I'm about to jump right into that lake of beauty.. For starters there is now an auto save feature!! It will save all pieces placed correctly on the puzzle if you turn the game off or even if you start another puzzle and come back to that one later. This feature alone is enough to bring this review to a YES but wait, there's more..The puzzle pieces now float around the whole puzzle, giving them more room to spread out so you can hunt for that one piece you know you need easier. This plus a seemingly better piece selection tool has practically removed the old issue with needing to click through millions of pieces to get the one you want. The puzzle area is smaller now but to make up for this there is a zoom tool that will enlarge the puzzle to your full screen and still let you move around pieces you have deposited up there. They also added an option to open up a bottom "sorting area" that runs along the bottom of the screen where you can put pieces you find that you know go somewhere but haven't figured out yet. And finally you can now rotate the pieces. That's right, just because you pull em out of the water doesn't mean that's the direction they go. Just one more thing added that makes this feel like a real table top puzzle.So far they've fixed many of the problems that the previous puzzle games had and even added a few fan requested features. This certainly makes the game much more playable and enjoyable and gives it a much deserved "yes" rating. However, as much as Decaying Logic went against their namesake and actually improved their game, there's still room for them to improve and learn that KISS (name of their publisher) stands for "Keep It Simple Stupid."So where are the flaws?? First off the pieces now actually look like they are under water. It's a neat effect but it discolors the pieces and makes it harder to pick them based on color matching. It's not game breaking but I now find myself picking up a piece and having to hope that it's a match for the color I'm looking for. Might have just been easier to keep those pieces floating on the surface the way they were in the previous games.Second flaw is that they've now got the controls floating around in the water with the pieces and they get a little annoying. First off they get in the way of piece selection and second off they are subject to being missed when I try to click them and I pick up a piece instead. Once again, not super game breaking since there's hot keys but perhaps just grouping them into the bottom or top corner, or better yet, having them slide out when the ESC key or another key is hit would have been better.So at the end of the day is this version of Pixel Puzzles better than the last?? The answer is a resounding YES. This is the one I would recommend to my friends. This is the one that gives us features we needed in the other ones. This is the ones that prove Decaying Logic listens to their fans. I'm a fan now. Can't wait to see what the future has in store for us with this line...... Now if we could only convince them to do one that can have fan made workshop puzzles.......Pros:+Good picture selection gives good challenging puzzles+Interesting piece cut-outs+Improved piece floating and selection+Rotating Pieces+Mid-puzzle save feature+Optional sorting area+Innovative "hint" system that gives you options+More puzzles than ever beforeCons:-Nothing but bird pictures-Colors on pieces are altered while "in" the water, making it harder to select pieces based on color-In-Game Menu buttons float around with the pieces and are sometimes difficult to hit without picking up a piece. This has got to be one of the best bird-themed puzzle games I've ever played!. Pixel Puzzles 2: Birds is a jigsaw game with a particular theme: birds. The goal is to rebuild a picture of them to unlock more puzzles. If you're familiar with Japan and UndeadZ, nothing is really changing: the pieces are floating in the water, the more you advance, the more puzzles with a big number of pieces you'll find and the forms are different. There is a new mechanism for getting some bonus: you have to catch crabs.Also, you have a bonus level on the TV interface, which is nice.Anyway, I've enjoyed this game less than the other three (I'm counting Anime in it as I've played at the time of the writing). I suppose it's due to the fact that it's real pictures and not drawing or with effects like in Japan. However, you wanted birds, you have all kinds of them.If you like jigsaw puzzles, go for it.. http:\/\/decayinglogic.com\/As you can see for yourself the 3rd in a series of Jigsaw games made by this company.They even have their own website http:\/\/pixelpuzzles.co.uk\/Jigsaws for me is all about having conversation with family, your loved ones, or as a conversation opener.
