Create a Video Puzzle online for free


A video puzzle is an online form of the classic jigsaw puzzle where the pieces create a moving video. That’s it: instead of building a static picture, you solve an animated video! Only at I’m a Puzzle you can create, play and share video jigsaw puzzles for free.

How to create a video puzzle

Find the right video

The first step to creating the video puzzle is to find the right video. Here there are some technical and visual constraints that you need to take into consideration:

  • Video with too many movements or scene cuts might be hard to solve
  • Video with too many movements might make some people dizzy
  • The video file cannot be bigger than 5MBytes
  • The video cannot be longer than 15 secs

In summary, you should record or find a short video that doesn’t have too many abrupt movements (depending on your target audience).

If the video you found is too big, you can use any of the below free online tools to trim it:
