   15 Move Hole Puzzle is a puzzle video game developed and published by DEMONsoft in 1993 for MS-DOS platforms. The game is a digital adaptation of the classic 15 Puzzle, a sliding puzzle that consists of numbered square tiles on a 4x4 grid with one tile missing.

The objective is to arrange the tiles in numerical order by sliding them into the empty space. In this version, the puzzle is set against backgrounds featuring images of nude women, originally sourced from Playboy magazine. As players correctly position tiles, portions of the background image are revealed, though tiles remain movable even after being placed correctly. The game comprises eight levels, with increasing difficulty as certain tiles become immovable in higher levels. The number of moves is tracked, and high scores are recorded in a leaderboard.
   While specific critical reviews are scarce, user ratings on platforms like MobyGames indicate a lukewarm reception, with an average score of 1.7 out of 5 based on two ratings.
   15 Move Hole Puzzle is a representative example of adult-themed puzzle games from the early 1990s, combining traditional gameplay mechanics with erotic imagery. It reflects a niche market during that era where such combinations were explored to attract a specific audience. The game is currently classified as abandonware and can be downloaded from various websites dedicated to preserving old games.

This ver­sion of 15 Move Hole Puzzle was de­sig­ned for per­so­nal com­pu­ters with o­pe­ra­ting sys­tem MS-DOS (Mi­cro­soft Disk O­pe­ra­ting Sys­tem), which was o­pe­ra­ting sys­tem de­ve­lo­ped by Mi­cro­soft in 1981. It was the most wi­de­ly-used o­pe­ra­ting sys­tem in the first half of the 1990s. MS-DOS was sup­plied with most of the IBM com­pu­ters that pur­cha­sed a li­cen­se from Mi­cro­soft. Af­ter 1995, it was pu­s­hed out by a gra­phi­cal­ly mo­re ad­van­ced sys­tem - Win­dows and its de­ve­lop­ment was ce­a­sed in 2000. At the ti­me of its grea­test fa­me, se­ve­ral thou­sand ga­mes de­sig­ned spe­ci­fi­cal­ly for com­pu­ters with this sys­tem we­re cre­a­ted. To­day, its de­ve­lop­ment is no lon­ger con­ti­nue and for e­mu­la­tion the free DOSBox e­mu­la­tor is most of­ten used. Mo­re in­for­ma­ti­on about MS-DOS operating system can be found here.
