JPSquare brings you its newest puzzle saga adventure "Fixum 2: World's A Part." Simple in its design, the object of Fixum is to switch or spin the patterned tiles to match your solution. Travel the world switching and spinning your way through 20 countries and 80 landmarks. More than 20 game modes and hundreds of levels keeps the game "fresh and fun" (which coincidentally was my nickname in high school).
This Board game offers engaging gameplay and regular updates for mobile players.

I bet you thought that Fixum 2 was done. Honestly, so did I… But I have a lot more free time at home these days and a friend that has been bugging me to fix it for iPhone 11 (here you go D'Arcy). I threw in 300 more levels to see if i still knew how to program. I'll let your in-app purchases be my litmus test. If you are still out there playing, let me know by making a small purchase. If I see y'all out there playing, i'll continue to make more levels.
Danke.

Community Insight:
We were so disappointed when we couldnt go past Chile. Even though it shows 40 levels there is nothing past level 17. This game has some harder levels than Fixum and we do buy coins to skip when it gets too crazy – disaster mode is awful! Its the best puzzle game out there.
We're dying to play more countries. Will you really be adding Korea soon? We love this puzzle. We're replaying puzzles where we didn't get the max, but it isn't quite as fun as new puzzles.
Ive kept this game on our phone through many upgrades, hoping one day it would be revived. Put out some advertising and Im sure itll take off again.
Love this game soooo much! Very challenging yet relaxing. We highly recommend it for those who love puzzles.
Ive completed all level just waiting for them to add more for over 3 months. Its addicting for sure and love it more then the other one. Didnt even finish the other one. Please add more soon.
We are trying to do the first landmark for Egypt and there is no picture and we cant move forward.
We cant do the spinning colorchanging levels. This level wont let us stop the spinning or fix the colors even tho we bought the boosters. And we CANT SKIP THE LEVEL. Theres no timer or move counter, so Im stuck. Unless we endure the nausea we get from the spinning color changing effects we can go no farther. We love this game, waited patiently for the update and now Im done, with 17000 plus coins in the bank. Please fix this level so people who cant take the effects can get past it. We purchase the coins to show our support for the developer as well, and Im pretty disappointed.
This is the same review as for the original Fixum. This time we wised up and didnt buy anything. The developer figured out how to squeeze the most amount of money from the poor players. Give them tons of lives but they have to purchase the boosters which you need when dealing with a 50 piece puzzle in 34 seconds (they must love the number 34) which is a losing proposition for the player. Games are supposed to give the player fun and relaxation, NOT anxiety and depression. Both games give the player just that, instead. Forget that! Both are now deleted and will be forgotten when we finish writing this Review. Have a great day, you all.
Edited 01/29/21. Cannot open puzzles on iPad. App crashes. The game is good but the developer ignores requests for help or reported glitches. Hope to hear from him one day, fix the problem and update our review accordingly.
After writing several emails for support we get a response from the writer of the email didnt like our tone and youre on your own. We simply asked if the app was broken again. Is that how businesses owners respond to customers these days? Guess so. Id like our $40 refunded on extra booster we paid for.
Ive been playing Fixum2 and its predecessor Fixum for about five years. The puzzles are great mental stimulation. The developer has created sufficient variety to keep us satisfied significantly longer than any other game that Ive played.
Super fun game but Hurry up with the update with the rest of the game!! Ive been waiting months!! Should we just delete it.
We love this game- its our go to puzzler… However Im all the way through now and waiting for Germany!! Love the daily puzzles to keep us going though.
Id say Im patiently waiting for an update but thats a lie…Im very impatiently waiting for the next update because we cant go a day without playing this game.
We lose track of time when we play.
This game is addictive and never boring.
We really like the app, its fun, interesting, and easy to solve the puzzles.
We made it to the end of Sphinx and when we click to do the puzzle it doesnt show up. It shows all the right stuff on the screen but both pictures are brown or another color. It doesnt actually show the picture. Other than that issue this is a pretty fun game.
We purchased the booster to remove the timer, but it doesnt work for us at all! On level 98 we have tried to use it but timer still runs and game stops when time runs out despite purchasing the booster. Is this just another scam?? We loved this game but we lose interest quickly when we pay for something that doesnt work. Also, the HELP section is basically worthless for finding answers to questions.
Having trouble playing this game. What is going on? Please help.
We love this game but the daily challenge does not work anymore. For weeks when you select the first game all we see is nine white dots. And both the puzzle key and the puzzle are exactly the same. It needs to be fixed please.
Have loved this game from the day we found it and, up until 3 weeks ago, would give it 10 stars. But, the daily game no longer works-same stupid 9 balls as others have mentioned. The developer has an email, but our letters just come back as undeliverable. Please, please fix the issue.
Can no longer play Daily challenge because the first puzzle is exactly like the target, with 9 squares all the same of circles! WTH, there is no way to know what to move. This same puzzle comes up first everyday so no chance to move forward! How do you fix this!!!! Also – what the heck, disaster modes where it is impossible to finish a level in allotted time. Its just a scam to make you pay money to continue and it cheapens the credibility of this whole game.
Fun puzzle game but with no way to earn coins with ads, etc it becomes very difficult to continue.
If you like visual things this is a good addictive game. Unfortunately it crashes constantly when the internet connection is weak or intermittent. One feature suggestion: please make it so the second stage of the daily challenge clicks through to the specified level, rather than making us take five minutes to manually find level 327 or whatever it is today.
We loved the first Fixum – Ive tried Fixum 2 multiple times but the game crashes everytime we try to start the first puzzle – our son installed the game on his phone also and gets the same thing – we have an iPhone 8 Plus with the current iOS – our son has an iPhone 8 with the current we OS.
On iPhone xr and xs – game shows up in left upper corner instead of full screen.
Loved it up until today. We tried to open it to play and it kept crashing. When we tried to contact them for app support, their site doesnt open.
We really enjoyed playing this game, but for over a year now Ive been waiting for an update. Made it to Germany, but now Im stuck.
We played this game all the time but since it stopped working, we have offloaded it. We tried to email the developer but the email was bounced back. We went to the developers website, Twitter and Facebook page and they have not been updated for years. We do not recommend downloading app until there is a 2019 or just play the game as long as you can. We do wonder where the money goes when we purchase upgrades? Also, it appears the developer has not responded to comments since April of 2018. And looking at the updates made on Fixum Im guessing there will be a fixum 3 before Fixum 2 is ever updated.
We love this game and play it daily but lately theres been problems with it and no way to contact support. It used to be that if we found an issue we could email the developer and quickly get a response. But now when you try to email from the contact button, in the app or from the website, the email cant be delivered. Landmarks stopped working a couple months ago making it impossible to continue the game but no word from the developer on how to fix it. We stumbled across the fix for that on our own. Now the daily challenges have stopped working. So frustrating.
We went from 5 stars to 1. No update in 6 months, no responses in customer support. Was our favorite game for a long time. Deleting it today.
We just found this game and we are loving it.
Love it. Fun. Addictive. Nice puzzles.
We really enjoy this game but every time we try to complete the 7 daily challenges in a row.. It resets us. We are able to complete all the requirements and we will get checks in each daily box.. But around day 5 or 6 it resets us back to day 1.
We love this game and there needs to be more free boosters.
Where do we begin? The first was fantastic, but the second? Holy twisted puzzling!! This is so much fun we cant stop.
Except for the timers which take $2.99 to get rid of.
We love it cause its challenging. The only thing we would change is we wish we would get free daily coins. Other than that, its awesome.
Just downloaded the game and we absolutely love it. However, when we closed the app and reopened it it would not allow us to continue where we left off. If we clicked on the level we were on a message would appear must unlock and complete previous level (not exact words but same message) we were on Italy, which is level 1, so how am we supposed to complete previous level when there is none? Please fix this problem.
Loved this until we hit timed levels. Ruined it. Some of us hate timed games, some of us have arthritic hands! Impossible without spending money. Games ought to be challenging & FUN. Timers take the fun out of playing.
Very good puzzle game, except, theres absolutely no reason for a game like this to involve coins, lives, or especially to introduce artificial delays before you can play again, except to try and get money from you. We have happily paid a couple of bucks (not $7.99) for this upfront, but these features designed solely to make it eternally profitable are not fun. We guess theyre making a lot of money that way, but thats not a game that gets a lot of stars from us.
Sadly Id love to play this game but we cant. Ive been able to earn stars in the first landmark but if we leave the game and come back it glitches and tells us This landmark is locked. Complete the previous landmark to unlock it. Its the first landmark – there is nothing before it! We loved the original Fixum but we can see ourselves uninstalling this version if its going to glitch out every other time we try to play it.
We play on an iPad. The game initially worked fine but on level 22 it crashed. It crashes now opening any level. Useless.
It crashes constantly on our iPhone 8+. And, when we can get it to stay running, we will occasionally get stuck on a level with a preceding instructional interstitial. The interstitial has a close us X in the upper right corner, but it doesnt do anything, forcing you to tap through several times to get through the multiple instructions the interstitial presents. You cant see this instruction just once – you have to go through it every time. Frustrating. The game has potential, but the UX is absolutely appalling. 1 star.
We love this game but it wont work on our iPad Pro.
Great game. Challenging brain trainer with a creative flair. A rare welcome sequel to a fantastic game.
This is the best and most addicting game we have ever played. We absolutely love it.
We enjoy the puzzles, but its impossible to finish them without coins. Since it costed us $10 to get through the first 3 levels (countries) Im going to delete it. There are 17 levels in all and we think they make it just difficult enough to NEED coins to get through. Youve got all youre going to get out of this sucker.
While appreciate the effort in trying to make the game better, we just cant get behind this one. The first Fixum was amazing, we dont understand why it wasnt just updated instead of revamped. 1. Hate the coin system. 2. While moving from scene to scene you dont know what the theme is. Fixum has the icons at the top of the screen so you knew what the board was. 3. In the map, you cant click on the icons to tell what they are if you dont remember. 4. There are no daily challenges and master challenges. Please just update the original Fixum. Update: 1. Sorry you hate it. We wanted to increase the ability for people to earn boosters within the game. We understand that concept, but the payout doesnt really allow you to earn enough to actually buy boosts. You have to buy them anyway, so it makes them completely irrelevant. 2. Thank you for the suggestion, we are considering adding an intro popup to each level so you can see what you're getting into. We don't want to slow down the flow of the game though. Theres a sort of fly-by already, but if you blink you miss it. The icons at the bottom are useless to the individual levels. Good idea, but it takes up space that could be used to put the icons for what you have to do in the level. Mainly on Takeoff and Overbooked modes. 3. We will will look into improvements here as well. 4. Patience is a virtue. Fixum 2 has been out less than a month, sorry it doesn't have all your favorites yet." Thats understandable. We just hope the daily prizes arent taken out of the original Fixum before they can be implemented. On a positive note: we love the Blast mode and the monument puzzles. Those are great additions to the game.
