Mystery Jigsaw Puzzle-1,000 Pcs Mystery Puzzle with Storytelling Comics, Secret Ending-1000 Piece Puzzle for Adults & Kids –19.7'' x 27.6'' Frameable Magic Art (Astro Gastro)

Following up: I finished the puzzle. This was a fun one that I’ve been curious about for a long time. The picture on the box gives you an idea of what is going on, but the picture you build happens 15 seconds later. There’s a small story that goes along with it. I figured out the twist almost immediately- it’s nothing really deep- but really enjoyed the details of the puzzle as I went along. Some characters say one thing in the box image and another in the puzzle, items have moved, etc. Even though I guessed what was happening, I didn’t see “the full picture” until I was very close to the end of the puzzle. Very fun! I usually don’t look at the box while I’m doing a puzzle, but this image didn’t have many broad swaths of uninterrupted color to make clear groupings by color. I broke down about 2/3 of the way though and looked at the poster included in the box, but as it wasn’t the exact image I was building I didn’t mind as much. I typically solve puzzles quickly; I’d say I took a solid 6-7 hours on this one.It’s also a particularly high quality product- nice, thick pieces that interlock beautifully and don’t bend and high quality box that won’t be misshapen by next week. There are lots of little details in the packaging that offer something of an “unboxing” experience. (One nice surprise was a complete lack of puzzle dust!)I had this puzzle on my list for a long time- it’s a little pricier than the puzzles I usually buy- but I particularly enjoyed it and will be buying others from the same line.(No spoilers here- the image I shared is the full version of the picture on the box.)

Purchased for a friend getting married because her and her future husband love puzzles. This will hopefully be a fun and different challenge for them.

This was a blast! Tough puzzle but so much fun!

These puzzles are so challenging but so much fun to put together. I've now completed 2 of them and have 3 more waiting to be done. The first 2 are already framed. They are great to do.

I am an avid fan of Magic Puzzle company, mainly because of how sturdy their puzzle pieces are. So when I googled similar puzzles, odd pieces came up.Right away I can tell you that the puzzle pieces themselves are amazing! Super sturdy and click together so you know when you got the right piece, unlike how with cheaper puzzles its hard to tell sometimes. The art is vivid and the puzzle itself is pretty big.The only thing I didn't like (and this is personal) was that the photo didn't match up with the end result (which I knew ahead of time). I didn't think it would be as difficult as it was to try and figure out what changed from the print to the puzzle but sometimes I was stumped. I don't hate it, it's just I know the next time I order one I will have to devote more "quiet" time to it then I usually do with puzzles.Overall I really liked this puzzle! The price is a bit steep but I often keep my puzzles and build them again after a few months.

I bought this as a present for my wife who enjoys puzzles. It’s very different than a traditional puzzle. The picture on the box is not the picture of the puzzle. There is a story and the finished puzzle is the end. It was a challenge and my wife took it head on. She really enjoyed it. The puzzle pieces are well made and are different shapes which also makes it fun.

I bought this as a gift for someone who loves puzzles, including 3-D puzzles in virtual reality, so I wasn't sure this would be enough of a challenge for him. Turns out, he absolutely loved it, I got to work on it with him, and I found it very fun, too. The concept is one I haven't seen before, the puzzle is set in the "future", and the concept and idea adds more interest than a standard puzzle, where the picture on the box is what you're working on. The story line was creative, the characters very cute, the drawings, colors, etc. made it even more fun to put together, the quality of the pieces is very good. An all-around good time puzzle. Highly recommend. I will be buying more and hope they keep making new ones. Kudos to the developers of this puzzle.

Well-made puzzle that is a joy to put together. Highly recommend this brand.
