About Drag In Place

A free dragon egg matching puzzle โ€” no download, no sign-up, just drag and match.

About the Game

Drag In Place is for anyone who likes a challenge. Pick the level that feels right for you โ€” from hints on which egg is in the right location, to a race against the clock. This game is perfect for all ages and abilities.

The best part? You can help hatch dragons! And be sure to do your best to win, as the dragons are very particular about their eggs.

Don't let them down.

How to Play

Drag the eggs from the holding area onto the numbered nests. Match each egg to its correct nest to win. You need to make at least 2 moves before you can check your answers.

If a nest is occupied, dragging another egg onto it will swap them โ€” no need to drag eggs back to the holding area first!

Keep an eye out for a surprise on the win screen... ๐Ÿฅš

Three Modes

โ€ข
Easy
Per-nest feedback after each check โ€” correct eggs lock in place with a blue underline, wrong ones show orange. Perfect for a quick brain reset.
โ€ข
Hard
Only a total correct count is shown โ€” no per-nest hints. You have to figure out which ones are right on your own. A proper puzzle challenge.
โ€ข
Hard + Timed
Hard mode with earthquakes. Place all eggs correctly before 3 earthquakes hit โ€” each quake scrambles the eggs back to the holding area and may change the correct answer. Survive all 3 to win!

The Eggs

Seven unique dragon eggs, each with its own personality โ€” fire, blue marble, vein, grey swirl, crystal, orange swirl, and purple spots. Each game randomly assigns which egg belongs in which nest, so no two games are the same.
