My puzzle for today is made by ceaco. It's called a magna puzzle and there are many many different versions of the things. I have shells, swirls, dinosaurs, you name it, I think they have made it.
This is one of those standard 12 piece matching tile puzzles with a slight twist. The pieces are lenticular. So what does that mean? It means you have a very hard time seeing the bloody butterflies! Those things go flying off in all different directions depending on which way the tile is flipped.
Overall, it's a very easy puzzle. A great one for the kids to play with. I would say get one, but I'll warn you about the negatives as well. If you suffer from motion sickness-forget this puzzle. If you have old eyes-forget this puzzle. If you've had a glass of wine-well you get the idea. Although it is a fantastic fun easy one to do, the flicking and moving of those butterflies is really a headache.
I think it took 2 short breaks at most to solve. It is one that is consistent in that aspect. If you are a sucker for comic video....
I have a couple of those with optical illusions. I agree, they don't present very much of a challenge, but they do look great. I think collectors like puzzles also for their looks, not just challenge :D
