About this game
The object of Puzzle is to reassemble a picture which has been scrambled.
The picture is broken into a number of pieces with one or more open spaces.

Slide the pieces into the open spaces to rearrange them back into the proper order.
If you're stuck, you have the option of challenging the computer to a game of chance like rock, paper, scissors or roll the dice.
This will subtract 60 seconds from your time, but if won allows any two pieces on the board to be swapped.
If you forget what the picture looks like, you can pause the game and see the completed version, but this can only be done five times per puzzle.
There are eight different levels, plus two additional expert levels.
About Nintendo Entertainment System
The Nintendo Entertainment System (1983 in Japan, 1985 in the West) revived the North American video game industry after the 1983 crash and established conventions — cartridges, licensing seals, save systems — that shaped the industry for decades. NES collecting is one of the most established retro markets: common titles remain cheap, but a well-known handful of low-print-run games (many from smaller third-party publishers) are among the most expensive video games in existence.
Gamevaro tracks Puzzle for Nintendo Entertainment System with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.
Adding Puzzle to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This NES release dates back to 1990.

Rarity & condition
Only a handful of market sales have been tracked for Puzzle, suggesting it doesn't trade hands very often — a sign of relative scarcity compared to more common Nintendo Entertainment System titles.
Complete-in-box (CIB) copies typically command a premium over loose cartridges/discs because the original box and manual are more fragile and get discarded or damaged over time — fewer complete sets survive.
