As the screens zoom out to reveal the players watching the picture, the picture suddenly breaks and the pieces fly out, surprising the players. The screens zoom back in as the cursor holding the first piece appears. The game begins. | ||

Players must piece the puzzle together, one piece at a time. If the player has the correct orientation and location of the piece, it will fall into place and the next piece will appear. The first player to piece together his or her puzzle is the winner. There are three puzzles: [[Toad]]'s birthday party, [[Penguin]]'s ice rink and [[Shy Guy]]'s car. There is a 60 second time limit, and if no one finishes their puzzle in the time limit, the game ends in a draw. | ||
