15 Classic Slide Puzzle 2.8

Publisher's Description:

Based on Sam Loyd's impossible 1878 sliding number puzzle,
this classic puzzle game is a bit more forgiving. There is always a solution. The software implements a shuffling algorithm that performs scrambling by random movement, not by random placement. Those who had the 15 slide puzzle in childhood should try the game in the digital format again. For the younger generation, it will be an exciting discovery.

Works fine, except that such simple applications do not justify an installer and registry keys. Besides, there should be some kind of snapping to the tiles. I often need to move the tile I just moved over and over again because it's a pixel or two in the path of tiles that could be moved next. So that's a 3 for now. *EDIT* There's a bug: in some instances, the number of a moving tile becomes 16. Since a new game barely shuffles the tiles, the problem is never solved. I can't believe someone can write such a simple game and yet leave bugs in it. The score plunges all the way down to 1.
