What is Map Puzzles?
Map Puzzles is a puzzle game for Mac that turns maps from different eras and subjects into jigsaw-style challenges. It helps players explore geography, history, and cartography by rebuilding map images piece by piece, then examining the completed map in more detail. The game includes puzzles based on world, country, city, constellation, geological, and weather maps, giving it both entertainment and educational appeal. It is designed for adults and children with a simple drag-and-drop interface, a built-in how-to-play tutorial, and optional visual guides that can make each puzzle easier or more demanding. Progress is saved automatically so longer puzzles can be finished over multiple sessions. Map Puzzles is published by CleverInfo and is available for Mac, with optional iCloud syncing for puzzle progress across supported Apple devices.

Safety overview
Status: Safe
This is a standard Mac puzzle game. Access to local storage and optional iCloud syncing is consistent with saving puzzle progress across devices. The developer states that the app does not collect data, but you should still review privacy details in the app listing and keep iCloud syncing off if you do not want progress shared between your Apple devices.
Recommendation: Keep Map Puzzles if you play it or want its saved progress available on your Mac and other Apple devices. If you do not use it, removing the app is a reasonable way to free space, and the main effect is losing local game access and any unsynced progress.
