Palapeli is an excellent computer based jigsaw puzzle program https://kde.org/applications/games/org.kde.palapeli

You will need a Linux based operating system like https://www.linuxmint.com/ and LMDE4 is a nice choice there
Palapeli is available in the Software Centre - all free

There are extra puzzles beyond the 5 in the program which I will locate. also its possible to generate a puzzle from an image

Might help pass the time for you.

Here is an excellent source for generating some jigsaw puzzles https://www.abc.net.au/news/2016-12-23/best-of-abc-open-pic-of-the-week-collection-2016/8140116
and many years of collections to the right on that page.

Open Palapeli go to view - open collection - then create new puzzle - select an image file - then fill in the remainder of the fields
the author can be ABC then press next - a jigsaw puzzle is created - you can choose the number of pieces - I chose 140 pieces for
Mike and Rusty the dogs in the tank on a hot day, shown in the next image.

The image shows Palapeli then ready for you to move the pieces.... there are some real challenges if you go higher in piece number
