Overview
Dan Gilbert's Triazzle: Animated Puzzle Challenge, sometimes known as Living Puzzles: Triazzle or simply as Triazzle, is a tiling puzzle game developed and published by Berkeley Systems (along with Dan Gilbert, Inc.) for Windows PC in 1995.
The first (and only) entry in Berkeley's "Living Puzzles" series, Triazzle is a computer game adaptation of Dan Gilbert's 1991 puzzle of the same name. Themed after the rainforest, Triazzle has players grouping triangle-shaped pieces on the board so that all the small wildlife (mostly frogs and butterflies) from the piece edges are formed correctly.
Along with multiple difficulties, there are three board shapes: Junior Triazzle (9 pieces in a triangle formation), Star Triazzle (12 pieces in a star formation), and standard Triazzle (16 pieces in a triangle formation).
It later received an updated re-release, known as the Rainforest Edition, which adds Macintosh support and additional educational content (detailing the rainforest and its wildlife). It later received a budget re-release by HeadGames Publishing on November 1998. There have been additional adaptations of the board game, including a mobile iOS release and the modern computer game Triazzle Island.
