Puzzles, puzzles and more puzzles, how can I tell the difference between the lot? Are you left feeling a little puzzled yourself? So many puzzles to choose from that you don’t know where to start? Have a quick look through the following categories to get an idea of what’s what in the world of puzzles!
Cast Metal and Metal Disentanglement Puzzles
The Hanayamer range,
from quite simple like Violin and possibly even Dolce to the wonderful challenge
of Spiral and Baroq, these puzzles feel great in the hand with the satisfyingly
weighty feel of the metal, and they really will keep you occupied.
Eureka Brass, a lovely collection of brass puzzles to suit all tastes.
Executive Aluminium
and Chrome ranges, the M&W was the first puzzle we ever bought and
as you can see, it certainly got us hooked! The executive puzzles from Eureka
offer a wide selection of puzzles which vary in difficulty and style, they
also look great on the office desk! Professor
Puzzle collection, the original nail puzzles now also have some chrome
additions to keep us happy. Some of the Nail puzzles can also be customised
for promotional use.
Wooden Disentanglement Puzzles
The Mad Cow range, these
are mainly ring and string, or wood and string. They appeal to all ages and
come in varying degrees of difficulty. The easier ones like the Bilateral
are a great introduction to puzzles for children. The more difficult ones
like Log Pile really do pose a challenge for even the most seasoned puzzler.
Many of the Mad Cow range can also be customised for promotional purposes.
Coffee Table Puzzles
The beautiful hand crafted wooden puzzles from Pentangle
will look great anywhere. But looks can be deceiving, they also offer quite
a challenge (look at Scotts
Enigma and 13th
Labour of Hercules). The Eureka Executive range also fall into this category,
the Globe Jigsaw and Oskar's Cube being excelent examples of this. Maxton’s
unique brass and aluminium puzzle sculptures take puzzles to new heights with
their beauty and amazing attention to detail, these truly are Puzzle Art.
Mini Puzzles
Pentangle Mini puzzles and the Eureka
Mini Wire puzzles, are perfect introductions to puzzles for all ages.
But again, looks can be deceiving, and some of these are really rather tricky.
For a slightly different puzzle, check out the Pentangle Mini
Ace of Diamonds, it kept us mentally absorbed for longer than any of us
would care to admit!
