Frequently Asked Questions
How does Tile Puzzle work?
Players must reposition and rotate a set of square tiles such that the questions and answers on the sides of the tiles all match up.
Teachers can provide a link to play online, or print a worksheet for players to cut out their own tiles.
There are three configurations:
a 2x2 grid requires 4 sets of prompts (and will have 8 exterior edges)
a 3x3 grid requires 12 sets of prompts (and will have 12 exterior edges)
a 4x4 grid requires 24 sets of prompts (and will have 16 exterior edges)
Teachers may specify "distractors," terms that do not correspond with any of your prompts, making the puzzle more difficult to solve.
Type your distractors in the box separated by commas or line breaks.
Exterior edges will be blank, unless you specify distractors.
Players using the provided link will each get their own unique, randomly generated puzzle.
How do players know they're done?
There is no answer key and nothing will happen automatically when players correctly complete a puzzle. Teachers will need to double check their work by looking it over or asking players to provide a screenshot.
Keep in mind that each puzzle has 4 solutions because a correct solution could be rotated 90, 180, or 270 degrees and still be correct.
