In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker|The Wind Waker]]'', the '''Sliding Puzzle''' is available at the [[Private Oasis]] of the [[Great Sea]]. It works like the real life sliding puzzles. A picture is cut into a 4x4 grid and jumbled. The objective is to slide the pieces around to see the original image. The missing piece will always be in the top right hand corner. After completing an image, 50 [[Rupee]]s will fall to the floor. Completing all 16 puzzles grants a 200 Rupee reward.

This article is about the Minigame in The Wind Waker. For the Vision in Ocarina of Time 3D, see Sliding Puzzle.

The Sliding Picture Puzzle is a Minigame in The Wind Waker.[1]

Overview

The Sliding Picture Puzzle is found inside the Cabana at the Private Oasis, which requires the Cabana Deed to enter. Once Link is inside, he finds a large picture frame on the right-hand wall with a jumbled image. The Minigame begins when Link checks this picture frame and tells the Butler that he would like to play "the amusements of nobility."[2]

The Minigame works like a real-life Sliding puzzle. One of 16 paintings of a character from The Wind Waker is cut into pieces on a 4×4 grid; the top-right piece is removed, and the rest are shuffled. Link must restore the painting to its original state by sliding the pieces around one-by-one by pushing the control stick, as indicated by yellow arrows in the single empty space.[3] As each puzzle is shuffled randomly, they do not necessarily increase in difficulty. For reference, the original painting is shown in a picture frame on the opposite wall. Link can suspend the Minigame at any time by pressing the B button, however if he leaves the Cabana and returns, the pieces will be re-shuffled.

If Link manages to complete the puzzle, the missing top-right piece will automatically re-appear,[3] one of the 16 small lamps beside the picture frame will be lit up, and the young hero will be congratulated by the Butler, who then tosses a number of Rupees onto the floor.[4] For completing any of the first 15 puzzles, Link is awarded 25 Green Rupees and five Blue Rupees, for a total of 50 Rupees. For completing the final puzzle, he is awarded 10 Green Rupees, 14 Blue Rupees, three Yellow Rupees, two Red Rupees, and one Purple Rupee for a total of 200 Rupees. Therefore, completing all 16 puzzles nets 950 Rupees. Link must exit the Cabana briefly to allow the Butler to set up the next painting.[5] Once all puzzles are completed, they will restart back at the first one.
