To build up a picture, perhaps, but not to build a (jigsaw) puzzle in my opinion. (Google Search disagrees with me.) You can also solve a puzzle, although some people might think this applies to more general puzzles as opposed to jigsaws.

Does anybody know what the game "hundir la flota" is called in English? This is the game where you have a table with numbers and letters where you "place" your ships, and then you have to try and guess where your opponent has placed theirs asking, for instance, "B5", and then they have to answer using "hit", "miss" or "sunk".
