Winning Moves Super Mario and Friends 500 Piece Jigsaw Puzzle Game, piece together Mario, Luigi, Yoshi, Bowser and Toad, gift and toy for ages 10 plus

Great puzzle

This is a very good quality jigsaw. I would definitely say that it's not for very young children to complete on their own as it's quite difficult so they would probably need help from someone older. Overall I would highly recommend it as it's well worth the money. You even get a free poster with it too.

As others have said, the sky and grass are an unnecessary challenge. The character section of the puzzle is very good and various ages enjoyed the challenge. The grass section is not completely plain. It is sort of speckled in most places so easier to do than the sky. These sections are made more tricky because pieces can fit in more than one place, so the top and bottom edge needed to be redone as if done incorrectly you can't make the other pieces fit. This made the puzzle take much longer than it needed to.I enjoyed the majority of the puzzle as a puzzle. The sky was like an endurance challenge and the grass was a mix. The puzzle only got completed due to determination to finish what I started and I felt a great sense of satisfaction for completing it. So much so that I hope to frame it.I now know what to avoid when choosing puzzles in future!

As a fan of Mario I had to get this jigsaw. The art on the box is lovely and the pieces are small, but just right to assemble. I soon assembled this jigsaw and would highly recommend it.

Found this to be a very well made puzzle bursting with colour with great solid pieces that fit really well together.It was great fun to build and the grass/sky gave it a (for me) nice challenging edge over what would have been a fairly easy/beginner puzzle otherwise, advancing it to more of an intermediate puzzle.The grass and sky might prove too much of a challenge for young children and be too testing on their patience as you have to be very methodical. (Hint to help a little: Do it in good lighting as the sky shading does get darker towards the top, but this is only really well visible in good lighting).

A nice bright jigsaw but the green grass and the blue sky is very difficult.

I have to agree with other reviewers. The centre part of the puzzle is fun to complete but the endless blue sky and green grass to the bottom and sides sucked any joy out of doing this. My 6 yr old son and I enjoyed putting the characters together over 2 evenings but gave up on the edges as the pieces are cut so similarly making it near impossible to identify the correct pieces and tedious to continue. This spoilt what would otherwise be a great jigsaw.
