If you're a fan of map-based puzzles, there's exciting news for you - Scrambled Maps has evolved into something bigger and better!
Scrambled World, is a major new version of Scrambled Maps that expands the game beyond its classic format and introduces a host of new features designed to enhance your puzzle-solving adventure.
What is Scrambled Maps?
For those unfamiliar, Scrambled Maps is a game where map tiles are jumbled up, and players must rearrange them to form an accurate representation of a city, state, or country. Think of it as a jigsaw puzzle, but with real-world maps! The challenge lies in piecing together the correct layout in as few moves as possible.
What's New in Scrambled World?
Scrambled World takes the original Scrambled Maps concept and turns it into a comprehensive global experience. Here are some of the biggest additions in this update:
🌍 1. A Unified Gaming Platform
Scrambled World integrates both Scrambled Maps and Scrambled Hex Maps, giving players the choice between the traditional square-based layout and a more complex hexagonal variation. This means more flexibility and a fresh challenge for puzzle enthusiasts.
🎯 2. Progress Tracking on a Global Scale
One of the best new features in Scrambled World is the ability to track your progress. A new world map interface lets you visually track how many Scrambled Map games you have solved. Successfully unscrambled cities will be marked in green, providing a satisfying way to see your accomplishments. Plus, by signing in with your Google account, you can sync your progress across multiple devices - and never lose track of where you left off!
🔄 3. Customizable Objectives
Want to focus on specific regions? Now you can! Choose to master all cities within a country or, if you're in the U.S., concentrate on completing cities within a particular state. This feature makes gameplay feel more structured and goal-oriented.
🔍 4. Enhanced City Selection
Finding your next challenge is easier than ever with multiple ways to select cities:
- Search for a specific city
- Click on the world map to discover nearby locations
- Use the random city selector for a surprise challenge
- Follow the featured city of the day for a guided experience
🔄 5. Flexible Game Settings
Whether you prefer the classic square grid or the more advanced hexagonal layout, Scrambled World lets you switch between them seamlessly. You can also adjust grid sizes to match your skill level - perfect for both beginners and advanced players.
🗺 6. Explore Mode
Once you've completed a puzzle, switch to Explore mode to view an interactive map of the game area. This is a fantastic way to learn more about the cities and regions you've been solving!
Performance Improvements & Future Plans
Currently Scrambled World includes games for over 11,000 locations around the world, focusing on major population centers and historically significant places.
Looking ahead, we are hoping to also include custom puzzle creation - which will allow players to generate map challenges for any location on Earth (and possibly beyond!).
