Microsoft has been working on a new app for those of you on Windows 8.1 and Windows RT – called Microsoft Jigsaw. This app made its debut to the Windows Store late last night, only to be pulled immediately. Perhaps the app was prematurely given the green light to go live? Either way, lets explore this app and see what its about.

“Introducing the all new Microsoft Jigsaw – the perfect fit for your Windows 8 device! Play hundreds of puzzles in three exciting game modes: Classic Jigsaw, Jigsaw Jam, and Daily Challenges. Intuitive controls make Microsoft Jigsaw great on your mouse & keyboard and excellent on a touchscreen,” the app description reads. Hmm sounds like a fun puzzle game. The game features multiple game modes, downloadable puzzle packs, and the ability to create your own custom puzzles to keep you entertained for hours.

The app also ties into your Xbox Live account, so you can earn achievements, compete with friends, submit scores to leaderboards, and even track your personal gameplay stats. Microsoft Jigsaw features the following modes:

Too bad the app is not available yet, but it sure does sound like a fun and entertaining creation from the devices and services giant. Perhaps the app wasn’t intended to go live just yet and we may hear about it in the coming days. We’ll keep you updated on when a download link becomes available.

For most of the kids of his age, the Internet was an amazing way to play and communicate with others, but he was deeply impressed by the flow of information and how easily you can find anything on the web.

Prior to founding Windows Report, this particular curiosity about digital content enabled him to grow a number of sites that helped hundreds of millions reach faster the answer they’re looking for.
