About the picture
Seen from a hill above, the village is a scatter of red-ochre wooden houses with white window frames, several of them lit yellow from inside. Smoke rises from the chimneys into the cold air, birches and spruces fill the gaps between the houses, and the frozen lake lies white below.
Computer-generated scene; it does not show a specific real place.
How to approach this swap puzzle
A tile that lands in its correct place locks and gets an outline, so every good swap is permanent. Start with tiles that are easy to place by eye: the red houses, the lit windows, the chimney smoke.
Then fill the picture area by area. The slow part: the open snow, the night sky. Use the preview button to compare tiles from these areas with the full picture.
