Split Personalities

HISTORY OF SPLIT PERSONALITIES

Sliding block puzzle games were very popular in the 80s. In split personalities you can enjoy a jigsaw puzzle from your personal computer. The basic premise is that you are presented with 1 of 10 images (representing famous figures such as Ronald Reagan, Maggie Thatcher, Lady Diana and even Sir Clive Sinclair), with the full image presented at the side of the screen.

You must move the cursor towards it, pick up a piece and place it in the main play area, making sure you can move the other pieces into place.

HOW TO PLAY SPLIT PERSONALITIES

Unlike the plastic versions, in SPLIT PERSONALITIES there are 16 pieces to fit into 20 spaces, allowing for more leeway in terms of continuous sliding. Complications in this version include gaps in the play area that swallow pieces and return them to the bank, a time limit, bombs that must be removed from the screen to avoid losing a life, and bonus objects that must be moved in specific ways for extra points.
