R by Serhiy Grabarchuk.
It is a basic puzzle for this type
of sliding block puzzles in a 3x4 tray with nine square
blocks which make a 3x3 pattern, and a 1x2 "shuttle"
block. Nine consecutive numbers, 9 to 1, are depicted on
the square blocks as shown in the above big tray. Every
piece can slide to an adjacent free space. To move
pieces simply click them.
The goal is to restore the correct order of the numbers
on the square blocks as shown in the right small diagram
above. How many moves will you need to solve the puzzle?

a 1x2 "shuttle"
block; they are shown below. Also, a
similar "shuttle" piece was used in
Card Suits Suite - 2 by Serhiy Grabarchuk. Using of
this "shuttle" piece which can move just by only one
cell back and forth
makes these puzzles especially
tricky.
