About

Canada Puzzle is a SuperCard-based jigsaw puzzle that lets players reassemble a map of Canada one piece at a time. Distributed through the Info-Mac archive by platypus@peak.org, it requires the freely available SuperCard Player to run and offers a quiet, low-stakes diversion in the tradition of educational map puzzles.GameplayThe game presents a scrambled map of Canada that the player rebuilds by dragging pieces back into place. There are no timers, scores, or opponents, just the contemplative pleasure of working a jigsaw on screen, with provinces and territories serving as the natural piece boundaries.Technical notesThe title was authored in SuperCard rather than HyperCard, so it requires a SuperCard runtime, distributed at the time as the free SuperCard Player. The package was posted to the Info-Mac game directory as a BinHex-encoded archive.DistributionCanada Puzzle was uploaded to Info-Mac as canada-puzzle.hqx and circulated through the network of Info-Mac mirrors during the 1990s. The author, reachable at platypus@peak.org, contributed it to the archive as a freely redistributable hobbyist project.
