Jim and Frank Mysteries Solutions - Puzzle #55 - Reverse Numbers

You know the drill by now, just keep on sliding away.

Fun fact: The Chess Champion Bobby Fischer was an expert at solving the 15-Puzzle. He had been timed to be able to solve it within 25 seconds.

  3. Forgive me, I'm new at this. I can't find anywhere else to post this.

    Is there any chance you'll be adding help for the bonus puzzles? I'm stuck on the sheep puzzle. I have one square (the diamond), but cannot figure out how to add a second square. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
    Thx!

  5. Does anybody have the actual solution to this puzzle, like a step by step answer? This puzzle has just got me stumped and frustrated! All the way to the puzzle then, BLAM! I understand how the solution ends up, the sequence, I just can't seem to get the numbers in the right positions. So please please please if anyone knows the answer or completes the puzzle after reading this comment post the step by step solution. 25 50 75 90 percent would be awesome too, but 100 would obviously be preferred! Thanks everybody for reading, and hopefully for the answer!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  6. There's some videos on Youtube showing how to do a 15 puzzle, might be useful for this too?

  7. I have done this twice now.

    963
    852
    741

    It would be difficult to show stages or you tube on how to do this

    Hint : get 987 on the left column by any means. Place the 1 inthe bottom right under the double block so this would be the lastnimber you move. It slot clockwise and anticlockwise moves but it can be done

  8. just to add concentrate on 6 then 5 then 4.

    last column should be perect afterwards if you place the 1 in bottom right

  9. Got 987 in and then focused on trying to get 1 in bottom right corner, never got it there because the puzzle solved itself. Was shocked when the gold coin just popped up!
