sliding tile puzzles are the worst puzzle

rubiks cubes would also be up there if they weren't great fidget toys once you learn a solving algorithm

@codl you can learn the solving algorithms for sliding tiles as well they're not that hard

@noiob yeah but then it's not a good fidget toy anyway because it snags all the time

@noiob tbh maybe my position is influenced by every tile sliding game I've ever played in my life being either
- the cheapest made plastic crap that feels the worst to use, or
- a virtual puzzle in a video game that feels like it has no narrative or thematic reason to be there
