TDC Games Mystery Jigsaw Puzzle Game - A is for Arson

Fantastic! The mystery had enough suspects and possible solutions that it was necessary to build the puzzles. I had some ideas about possible solutions, one of which was correct. The puzzles needed to be studied and interpreted, so the solution was not obvious halfway through building the puzzles. The two puzzles mixed together was interesting. The manufacturing quality was high with sturdy pieces and vibrant colors. As some of the other reviews stated, there is no picture for reference while building the puzzle (because then you wouldn’t need to build them in order to solve the mystery). I did not find this to be a serious hindrance, and the pictures took shape easily enough by assembling one color and then another, etc. There was also a general written description of the pictures, so it wasn’t like trying to start from nothing. My package arrived around 4 pm on Tuesday and I finished about 24 hours later (yes, I slept and worked half a day and did other things too in that time). I am purchasing B is for Birthday today!

Hubby loves these puzzles, and arrived super quick!

I was a little apprehensive about 2 puzzles mixed together....turned out to be not a big deal. You don’t have to be “expert” to put this together. My husband and I do puzzles about once every 5 years, so definitely not “expert”. The puzzle was challenging enough with being frustrating...there is no picture of the completed puzzle to follow, so you are sort of working it out as you go. We completed it in a few days - a nice diversion from too many zoom meetings these days...

Love these mystery puzzles! Added challenge of not having an image to work by. Great quality with no issues with the pieces. Fun to work on!

For those who aren't sure how to do these mystery puzzles: You read the enclosed book. Then you put together the puzzle or puzzles blind (no picture art-see my review for "B Is For Birthday" Mystery Jigsaw Puzzle by TDC). The answer to the mystery is enclosed in the puzzle or puzzles. However if you are not exactly the patient or determined type of personality I wouldn't be the first to recommend these as they have no picture- part of the mystery and challenge. This puzzle was the first puzzle I put together in a long time. I was pleased to say it took me 3 weeks to put it together. Most of the pieces were similarly colored which added to the challenge. I absolutely LOVED it! I also purchased with "A Is For Arson", the following puzzles: "B Is For Birthday" "C Is For Chocolate" "D Is For Diamonds" I highly recommend these for those who love a good challenge and love to have brain stimulation.
