I need to solve the Jigsaw puzzle in order for Jane to give me the telescope back for Nancy’s room. It’s so difficult. Almost to difficult.
Does anyone know an easier way to solve this puzzle?

Go to the messageboards at www.herinteractive.com. Players exchange tips and spoilers there and I’m sure someone will’ve had the exact same question.

How and why does Detective Hoffman become Jigsaw’s new apprentice?

November 7, 2009 - 1:55 pm 3 Comments

I got confused on saw 4 on how and why did Hoffman become Jigsaw’s new apprentice. Please can u explain to me

Det. Hoffman’s sister was murdered by her abusive boyfriend, Seth Baxter, and in a fit of rage, Hoffman murdered Baxter and pinned it up as a Jigsaw case. Angered by Hoffman’s inferior work, John Kramer (aka Jigsaw) tracks the detective down and confronts him about his mistake. Once Hoffman accepts Jigsaw’s ways, he becomes Jigsaw’s second apprentice, behind Amanda Young. But Amanda went rogue, and with help from a drug dealer named Cecil, she ruined Kramer’s chance’s of having a baby with his wife, Jill Tuck. This led Kramer to nearly go insane, so Hoffman found a clever way of picking off Amanda. This leaves Hoffman as Jigsaw’s last true apprentice, until Jigsaw enlists his wife Jill to continue his legacy in the latest film.

i would like to get my dad a Cleveland Browns jigsaw puzzle for Christmas. I’ve tried ebay and amazon but they only seem to have small ones and i want something bigger.

There are online puzzle making companies that will make a custom puzzle for you if you upload/email the picture you want to use and tell them the size and number of pieces you want it to be.

Reassemble the puzzle within five minutes. Pieces lock in place when they’re in the right place.

The easiest strategy is to move all the pieces out of the square, then put the corners in place, then the edges, then the middle pieces. The finished picture is a goofy abstract of rabbits lurking in the grass.

In Junior mode, all the pieces are the right way around at the start. In Senior mode they’re jumbled and may have to be turned before they’ll go in; right-click to rotate a piece.

Either way it’s not that hard, since you have five full minutes to finish.

What is the technical term for "jigsaw" crime evidence?

What is the technical term for "jigsaw" crime evidence?
I don’t mean the figurative term, I am referring to when an item found at the scene matches up with a piece from the suspect. i.e. the tip of the suspect’s knife broke off in the victim’s wound, or a shard of broken glass from a hit-and-run victim matches up with the windshield and fits where it was broken.
Thanks in advance to anyone who can help :)

"the found part matches the broken original"

I am struggling to do the jigsaw because the box picture is so small. Does anyone know where I can get a larger picture?? maybe on the internet?

There’s a pic of it on ebay, but that might not be any better than the box, it’s the largest i could find though!
good luck!

Who would you be more scared to find in your room at night, Chucky or Jigsaw?

October 22, 2009 - 8:00 pm 9 Comments

I’d say Chucky, because Jigsaw’s not that bad without the machines.
(I’m trying to decide which to be for a scary costume party in two weeks)

And also, should I use a mask, or face paint and fake blood? I’m thinking a mask would be easier to recognize.

jigsaw is scarier since once you get in your room there’s traps set up all over just for you and chucky is just a doll you can just kick into the closet or out of the room.

I say get a mask but also it depands if you get one with or without the scars and staples.I say without but with the creepy smile and some blood on it.If it’s chucky that you pick.
