Hollow Ponds, Richard Hogg; Finji; PC, Mac<\/strong>
Fill the walls of your nice big empty house with pictures delivered \u2013 in pieces \u2013 by your friendly local postwoman<\/p>\n

Wilmot the anthropomorphic square has a curious but not exactly undesirable existence. He resides in a spacious, empty house to which his friendly local postwoman, Sam, brings regular deliveries of tiled puzzles; a subscription that never seems to expire. Wilmot unpacks each new delivery, scattering the pieces on the bare floor. Then he can shunt, grasp and rotate each fragment to form a coherent picture \u2013 each of which has been drawn by British illustrator Richard Hogg. Matching pieces snap together pleasingly, and when the artwork is complete it can be hung on Wilmot\u2019s big empty walls. As soon as one puzzle is finished, Sam arrives with the next, and soon enough Wilmot\u2019s wall is as cluttered and colourful as a Saatchi gallery.<\/p>\n

There are, typically, several fragments left over when you complete a picture, so some of the challenge is in identifying these rogue pieces, setting them to one side (you are free to organise your floor space to suit your organisational requirements) to return to once you have all the necessary components. In time you\u2019ll have several puzzles on the go at once, each one at a different level of completion, and it\u2019s this arrhythmia that gives the game its unique feel, elevating it beyond a mere digital jigsaw simulator.<\/p>\n
