managed to download and install the game on windows 11. It worked well. It has 2 modes a relaxed and a timed mode, Haven't had chance to play many levels but I am keeping the game.

Yes this is a typical Toomky game that will give you a not compatible on 32 bit machines error, but if you go into the game folder and click on the icon marked Game instead of the one with the name of the game - Alice's Patchwork etc. - the game will open properly. You'll have to go into the properties of your start menu and desktop shortcut icons and change them to Game, or, more easily, delete them and make your own by: right clicking on the Game icon, clicking create shortcut as many times as you need, and move those shortcuts to those 2 positions - and even the quick launch section of the task bar, if you want to go that far. The easier way to send to the desktop is to just click "send to" on the right click menu and click the option desktop.

This has an untimes relaxed mode, also left handed support, so 2 good features, and it has accomplishments, which adds a little extra challenge/variety, but it's a standard mosaic game after that. Your enjoyments mainly going to be based on whether you like these simple jigsaw, and whether you enjoy the artwork. Happy gaming.

Thanks GGOTD and Toomky.

6 Steam reviews. All but one good. And another by a curator that said that the game was most appropriate for ages 4-6, with parental help, though that last phrase makes me think it would be better for slightly older children. The 1 negative review said that World 6 was missing (Level 6?). 1 positive review did mention, and showed, that some of these pictures are of the faces of young girls/women done up in a slightly macabre style of makeup. Though I also checked Big Fish and the reviews were just OK. Going to try it myself because I've seen these games before marked 64 bit that will play fine on 32 bit, so folks with older machines might want to give it a try. Will report on that shortly, though, very sorry, it's getting late. Got distracted today.

Installed and works fine in Win10HomeX64. Language choices are English, French, German and Russian. There are 2 modes, timed and relaxed. Functions similarly to the other mosaics given away here in the last few months just in the "Alice in Wonderland" theme. Complete puzzles to move on, win trophies, etc. There is a video over at the Steam link above.

Thank you to the Toomky and GGOTD teams!

Alice's Jigsaw Time Travel is a digital jigsaw like puzzle/mosaic game with enjoyable whimsical music. It was released December 29th, 2020 and has never been given away before on GOTD. The gameplay is very similar to Alice's Patchwork 1 (given away in January 2023 which I rated C+) &2 and if you have it might want to play that one first.

There are 100 different colored puzzles to solve with 10 hours of gameplay. Each puzzle image is made from many fragments. You will get a handful of already assembled pieces on each picture, and it's up to you to complete the rest until you get a full image. But it's not as simple as it sounds like a jigsaw puzzle. In the normal mode, you have a time limit and only some of the missing pieces you can grab are showing, which means that you will need to place one of the pieces for the next piece to show up and take its place. In a normal jigsaw puzzle you would have access to all pieces. And further the digital pieces that you can currently select are not shown full size until you select one so its unfortunately not always easy to judge where a piece might fit unless you select it sometimes unlike jigsaw pieces.

To earn all three keys which also unlock subsequent worlds, you must fully assemble the fragmented picture, complete the level without a mistake by placing the fragment in the wrong location, and complete the task within a specific time limit. Assembling the right pieces in the right places or other game mechanics that are timed in other games against a ticking counter can be stressful to some...however there is a left-hand mode as well as a Relaxed mode in options that automatically gives you the other keys besides the one to complete, and points for finishing the level, no matter how long it takes you to finish the puzzle and no timer which is thoughtful. So in that mode the game doesn't give you a penalty or make you feel bad if you do make a mistake or take a very long time to complete it and you can always go back to play any puzzle you've already completed if you feel like re-attempting.

In first levels it seems really easy of course with just a few missing pieces, but when you get to more complicated paintings it becomes really hard. You get a free hint to show where to place a piece - additional hints cost coins you earned, as well as being able to extend the timer by another 30 seconds when its low. As a hint at the end of a level, choose the three line icon which will go to the level select so you can see the photo of the upcoming image.

There is plenty here to keep those who enjoy the puzzle genre happy. I liked the Alice's Patchwork titles slightly more as the images were using Alice in Wonderland themed images while nothing here really resembles the lovely fantasy of Wonderland and the texturing used on the images based on real people doesnt work as well in this version, and therefore probably going to keep those rather than this since I dont play these type of mosaic games as often as some other types of games.

Rating: C-

Suggestions: It would be wonderful to see the finished puzzle without all the lines, maybe even export to be used as wallpaper. Show the finished picture for 5 seconds starting a level...then it disappears to the play screen with only the partial pieces in place. Sometimes pieces I have no idea where they may go since I never saw the pic before unless I left to the levels screen. Allow size of piece to be shown full size when hovering over the piece in the ribbon rather than having to select it.

If you like these type of puzzle games, Pixel Puzzles 2: Anime was one of the many free alternative giveaways listed on the giveawayoftheday forums from a nice series of digital puzzles, so keep a watch there or subscribe to the two threads to get notifications as new ones seem to be added frequently.

Hello Everyone! I just downloaded the files. Then I extracted the files. Then I ran the setup file. However, it first shows the 'Activating' dialogue box and then it comes up saying it's been activated. There was previously the install process that happened between those 2 steps but it is no longer there. The same thing happened with a download from this site last weekend. Anyone else now finding the install process has disappeared from these giveaways? Prior to this I had no problem downloading, activating and installing any games
