It's no secret that puzzles have been popular during the pandemic. But with everything turned upside down this year, it hasn't always been easy to find the jigsaw puzzle you want as suppliers constantly run out of stock. So, if you find a puzzle that you like, don't hesitate to buy it!
Obviously we LOVE jigsaw puzzles. Please keep enjoying them all year long! But, have you considered for yourself - or as a gift - other types of puzzles?
We've picked out some "other puzzles" (cousins to the jigsaw) that will entertain individuals and cohorts in your bubble! These are all family friendly ideas that we hope you enjoy! Links provided to our retailers for online shopping in the United States and Canada.
Q-Bitz
Puzzlers have excellent visual dexterity, which makes Q-Bitz a natural fit for the puzzle lover. Just like a puzzle, one has to find pieces that create a specific image - these pieces are cute little wooden cubes. These bright and colourful cubes are available in various challenge levels and even a solo version!
Jixelz
Precision-cut micro jigsaw pieces join together in a pixelated adventure! Puzzles can be created by following the paper templates or use your imagination to design your own masterpiece. Different size projects and themes are available to enjoy as a solo project or for family fun.
Pana Po'o is a Hawaiian word for "scratch your head", which puzzlers often do when searching for pieces. So flex your brain's creative brawns to design an object that your team can guess. Roll the dice, grab your colours, and start creating! Great for the puzzler who enjoys abstract images.
Zangle
Just like jigsaw puzzles, Zangle uses visual perception with left and right brain connectivity. Use two or more cards to create the shape on another card and you have a Zangle! You can enjoy three different modes from Speedster (race opponents) to Turn-Style (take turns) and Solitaire (solo play).
Puzzle Sorting Trays
Okay, it's not a puzzle or a game, but it's new and SOooo cool! These stacking sorting trays are the most unique you'll ever find because they have sifting holes to get rid of any pesky puzzle dust. They pair perfectly with any brand of puzzle so you can sift, sort, and stack to your hearts content!
Marble Circuit
The addictive marble puzzle game that has you turning tiles to get all your marbles in the correct position. Colourful removable multi-directional tiles are logically placed to send steel marbles down the run. Match the challenge card and you're ready for the next puzzle. A great solo game for your brain!
Guacamole
Whether you're naughty or nice, you can add spice to your family fiesta by shouting "Guacamole"! There's a lot of picking up cards only to put them back, like when you grab the wrong puzzle piece. Be first to collect all the ingredients for each spice level & you'll be kicking up the heat this Christmas. Grab a snack!
Sapphiro
Literally, a gem of a game. Four puzzle pieces fit together to create a colourful board. Simply surround a jewel with six coloured diamond pieces and win the gem. It's aesthetically pleasing, simple to play, and exciting when you win two gems at once! Read Outset's Critic's Corner review for more details.
