Glass Masquerade has some of the most gorgeous puzzles I've ever seen, each puzzle is a work of art.

Glass Masquerade has some of the most gorgeous puzzles I've ever seen, each puzzle is a work of art. These are Stained Glass puzzles that were created by 20th century artists, and each puzzle has a theme from a different country. The puzzles are created around a clock face, and the clock hands actually work, by keeping track of the time it takes you to complete the puzzle, but they aren't intended as a "race against the clock" feature, so you have all the time in the world to complete the puzzle. My only complaint is with that particular feature, because it would be nice to have the ability to stop the clock hands movement, which make the puzzles seem less relaxing in my opinion.
The Stained Glass fragments are located in circles around the clock face, and all of the fragments are presented to you, not just a handful at a time like the Mosaic Puzzles offer. There are 4 "Hint" fragments which are red and have a small ring n them, and they can be quickly added to the clock face on the border rings, but you can go into the options settings and turn this starting feature off.
The other Stained Glass Fragments are shown as a dark silhouetted shape without color, until you click on the frag to pick it up. After you pick it up, the frag will adjust itself, by flipping over to the position it will actually face on the clock. If you place it incorrectly, you won't be penalized, but the piece will return to the circle ring position it came from. The outer rings can be rotated to find other pieces that may be hidden from view.
Each Stained glass puzzle will show the range of difficulty at the start, on a scale of 1 through 5. You will start out with a clock puzzle theme in France, and other countries are unlocked as you progress. I love Stained Glass puzzles, and I love that I can relax while assembling these gorgeous works of art, enjoy! Show less

SHORT & SWEET SUMMARY REVIEW
Glass Masquerade is a stunningly gorgeous series of increasingly difficult jigsaw puzzles rendered in the form of stained glass pictures. Gameplay is relaxing and enjoyable, and accompanied by beautifully zen music.
More details on the specific elements of the game below the fold…
————————————————————
STORYLINE
There isn’t really a storyline as such, but you’ll be traveling the globe, stopping in selected countries to restore a stained glass piece in the form of a clock. Each country’s piece is a theme selected from the history or myth of that country.
GAMEPLAY
The Setup
The clock you’ll be restoring is in the center of the screen. Surrounding it are two concentric rings containing the puzzle pieces, which are merely silhouettes. There’s an option to begin each puzzle with several red “hint” pieces that attach to rings on the border of the clock. Turn this option on for a slightly easier puzzle, or off if you prefer a challenge.
The Play
The rings with the puzzle pieces can be rotated by clicking and dragging, so you can view all the pieces at any time. When you click on a piece, it changes from a blank silhouette to its full color and proper orientation. Place it on the clock face, and it will click into place if your placement is correct, or slide back to the rings if incorrect. Gameplay is timed, but there’s no need to rush unless you wish to.
PRODUCTION
The graphics are crisp and the palette is rich jewel tones and burnished metals, both easy on and pleasing to the eye. Animation is smooth and lifelike. The music is lovely; I wish I could download it. Game sounds are nicely unobtrusive.
CONCLUSION
We all know I’m not a fan of jigsaw puzzles within HOPAs. Well, if they were like this, I’d definitely change my mind. Glass Masquerade is a lovely sensory experience with enjoyable, relaxing gameplay in the easy to medium difficulty range, a perfect accompaniment to your morning coffee, afternoon snack, or late night relaxation.

I love the steam punk-type of feel to this group of puzzles. They are simply beautiful Each one is based on a clock, and is representative of a country. There is no time clock rushing you to complete the puzzle in a certain amount of time. The music is very soothing.
What I like best is the ability to have basic pieces to start each puzzle. You will find 4-6 special pieces with 'rings' that attach to their place along the rim of the puzzle. Then you're not starting cold, with no idea of where to start. Very cool feature!
The only fault I can find is that there are only 25 puzzles to the game. After solving 8 in the trial portion, I know I'll be sad when I finish them all. Show less

Glass Masquerade is one of the most gorgeous and relaxing games that I have played in ages. Mosaic puzzles and games are among my favorites but Glass Masquerade stands out because I am not rushing around to either beat the clock or to complete a story.
The game itself provides little to no explanation or help when getting started but it really isn’t difficult to figure out how to proceed. There is a very brief tutorial when starting the game but that’s about it. Others have explained the mechanics of the game so I won’t go into how to play each level. Since there is no detail in the brief tutorial it is difficult to determine if there might be more than one puzzle in each country visited so I wish the developer had been a bit more forthcoming about how many total puzzles are in the game. Without that information being provided Glass Masquerade might be a short game if each country has only one puzzle to solve. At least for me each puzzle is so beautiful that I simply want to enjoy it as I place the pieces around the clock, and to enjoy the soothing soundtrack as I play. It was so rewarding to see the end result when I completed a puzzle because the whole graphic was simply beautiful.
It would be terrific to see more of these puzzles from the developer in the future and hopefully they will include a bit more information and help for those who want to know. Kudos on a beautiful and relaxing game that I love. Happy gaming! Show less

The puzzle pieces are in silhouette and rotated, but for your convenience, as you pick up a piece, it automatically rotates to the correct shape. Some starter pieces are shown in red, although this feature can be turned off in the settings. You can also move the wheels, although they move automatically as you place pieces.
There's only one difficulty level, set at a half-way mark, but you can increase the difficulty by turning off the starter pieces. I found the level set just right for me; the pieces were in silhouette, rotated and shaped - couldn't ask for more!
All in all, a well thought-out and designed game with stunning puzzle images. Show less

There are a variety of different levels, 4 hints if you get stuck and the puzzles can be played in relaxed mode. As you progress through the game, you are taken to other countries via each level you unlock. There is no penalty for placing an incorrect piece, and the game has a nice feature that helps you out with your fun. I like this convenient little bit of assistance.
This beautiful game is quite different than the other puzzles offered to us. Maybe this is a sign of more wonderful creations to come. I highly recommend. Thanks BFG!

I admit that I love stained glass and that it is probably my favorite hobby, but still this is something different and quite beautiful. The music is fine but I hope it evolves as the game progresses. I only did the first 2 puzzles, but I found it very entertaining and different from jigsaw puzzles. Wish I could give it 10 stars.

Finally a great game. I like all types of games, especially puzzles and mosaics. If you like mosaic type puzzles this game is one you should at least try the demo. This raises the bar for the others. I played the demo first. It did take a few minutes to figure it out. You can select an option under settings that gives you a few clues on the first pieces, which I needed. The colors are wonderful. ...Show more
Finally a great game. I like all types of games, especially puzzles and mosaics. If you like mosaic type puzzles this game is one you should at least try the demo. This raises the bar for the others. I played the demo first. It did take a few minutes to figure it out. You can select an option under settings that gives you a few clues on the first pieces, which I needed. The colors are wonderful. The pieces float around the picture you are putting together. You can move the circle with the pieces around, slowly. When you select a piece it does spin around and increase in size which makes it easier to see. Once you select a piece you definitely have to move it around the picture for the best fit. I love this puzzle game. The only thing that was a bit difficult is holding the button down so I can move the piece around, my hand and arm did get tired after a couple games. It also took me more than 5 minutes to put one together but that is ok because you are not timed. No penalty for placing the piece in the wrong spot, it floats back to the outer circle. I played the demo through one game and it was a buy for me. Great job. Show less

this is a definite buy for me- the puzzles are gorgeous, very colourful. I wish there were more than 25 of them, at around 5 minutes per puzzle it's only about 2 hours of fun but I'm eager to find out what all the pictures are
