About EQ Test Puzzle

EQ Test Puzzle is a jigsaw game with a theme you do not see often: emotions. Each level is built around a feeling, shown through a color, a facial expression or a keyword, and the puzzle pieces you place need to match it. So you are solving two things at once - where the piece fits, and whether it belongs to the emotion in question.

The mechanics are familiar. You drag pieces from a tray into empty slots, and some pieces need to be rotated before they fit. A hint button is there for the moments when you cannot see the answer. You choose a difficulty before starting, so you can ease in and step up once you understand how the levels work.

The game presents itself as training for emotional awareness and problem-solving, and paying attention to faces and moods turns out to be a pleasant change from matching plain colors and shapes.

How to play EQ Test Puzzle

  1. Tap to choose a difficulty level and start.
  2. Check which emotion the level is asking for - look at the color, expression or keyword.
  3. Drag puzzle pieces into the empty slots on the board.
  4. Rotate a piece with a twist gesture when it does not fit the way it is facing.
  5. Tap the Hint button if you get stuck, and fill every slot correctly to clear the level.

Tips and tricks

  • Decide what the emotion is before touching a piece. Sorting the pieces in your head by feeling first makes placement much faster.
  • Look at the empty slots before picking up a piece. Knowing which spaces are still open makes it easier to see where a piece can go.
  • If a piece seems right but will not snap in, rotate it before trying a different slot.
  • Start on the easier difficulty to learn how the game signals each emotion, then step up.
