Tangrams

Known as Tangrams, a puzzle game from China. There are almost always multiple solutions, but it will only take one. If you're stuck, just drag a big piece into the puzzle to see when starts changing color just that little bit. Let it go and if it's in the right place it'll change color and snap in. These are all the ones I encountered - after that they started repeating themselves.

Matchsticks

Click play then Mouse-over the videos on the bottom to select the one you want to see.

Pipes

All the pipes puzzles are randomly generated. You want to go from the absolutes to the relatives; what I mean is to move the things that have NO choice as to their positions - straight pipes at the edge has to be parallel to the edge, corners at the corners can’t stick out. Then you work on the straight and curved pipes that attach to those, then lastly twist the rest of them into position.
