Think Fun Triazzle Picture-Matching Brainteaser (Dolphins) Puzzle for Ages 8 and Up (76491)

This dolphin triazzle puzzle is quite a fun challenge. It looks like it would be easy until you give it a try. Each piece is simply a triangle shape, but can fit in multiple spaces. The head area of a dolphin lines up with the tail along the edge and you think you have it until you continue on and run into pieces that dont go together. Really a great brain working problem solver puzzle that is great for all ages. The size is nice not at all big or clunky and can be easily stored in between games in the game cabinet. We are very happy with the quality and challenging fun of this puzzle and definitely recommend. Would make a great gift for families.

When I was a kid, my cousin had one of these puzzles (a butterfly version). I always thought it was the coolest thing ever; it only took me 25 years to get my own puzzle! I first worked on this puzzle while listening to some things, as I tend to concentrate better when my hands are busy. After a while, I had some time to just concentrate on the puzzle. Id taken a picture before I started (just in case) and am so glad I did! With all of the different frog legs everywhere, Id thought there were two pieces that fit in each corner. Id worked all the variations from there, but they didnt match. Looking back at my picture, it turns out there were actually other options (Ill let you figure out how many). ;-) Long story short, its a colorful, fun brain teaser for about 8 years and up. The puzzle is well made, and Im storing mine in a 2.5 gallon Ziplock so I dont lose any pieces. Have fun puzzling!

This is definitely a lot harder than it looks. My 4 year old loves puzzles, so I thought this would be an interesting twist to challenge him, but its just too hard for his level (I know the product says 8 and up, but those arent always accurate). That said, it is a fun puzzle that will challenge anyone. The board and pieces are decent quality, but I wish they were a bit thicker. Overall Im happy with the puzzle. Ill just have to wait a bit before my son can do it.

This was my first time trying a puzzle like this. It was fun. It looks easy. There are only 16 pieces, but Id get down to the last one or two pieces and - WRONG! - Id have to start over. If you like brainteasers, you will enjoy this.

Think Fun Triazzle puzzles are fun but super challenging. Prepare to spend a lot of time figuring this one out! The puzzle pieces and board are thick and great quality.

Had the pleasure of sharing this with my friends 12yr old daughter. She looked at the package and said, hmm, I like butterflies, its cute I guess. Oh its a puzzle?..oh thisll be easy. Well, after an hour she said, gee I guess this is a brainteaser, why didnt you tell me!?!?!?!...she eventually solved it, walked away and declared, I wanna try it again! This was also a big hit with a small group of my adult friends....was hilarious actually. Bottom line, fun for young and old. Enjoy!!

Im a full-time single parent and I work from home about 80% of the time. The summers are rough with no school, so there is a constant struggle to find things to keep my daughter busy. She loves doing jigsaw puzzles, so I figured I would give this a try. She LOVES it! She has been at it for about 2 hours now without a peep, except this thing is not easy! I might have to get another one of these when she figures this one out. Highly recommend getting this for your kiddos, especially if you are a work from home single parent like me! UPDATE: I now have one gripe about the puzzle. The answer* is glue to the back. Would be nice to have it as a separate paper. This is one of those puzzles you shouldnt use picture of the final product before assembly.

This Triazzle puzzle is almost the same as one I had many years ago, only smaller. The frog design appears to be the same, however this puzzle is, I’d guess, about 50% smaller than the one I had in the 1990s. This is actually a bit welcome, as the issue with the larger Triazzle puzzle of the past was sometimes finding a place to store it flat. The puzzle appears simple, but once you dump all the pieces out you’ll find that it’s not quite as simple as it looks, and just when you think you may have the puzzle solved, you may find the last few pieces just don’t fit! It’s a fun puzzle, the only issue is once you recall where a few key pieces go, it does become a bit easier. Even now, years later when working with the puzzle, my brain still recalls where one key puzzle piece goes, however, it’s still fun to figure the rest of the puzzle out! The puzzle is made well of sturdy board material. The puzzle pieces fit snugly, the printing is good, and overall it’s a fun puzzle!

I bought this to use in my classroom with elementary students. I like the puzzle and think the kids will enjoy it. While it is made of sturdy cardboard, I don’t think it will hold up to a lot of use. Maybe better for home use with just one or two children.

This puzzle arrived quickly and is made of nice quality cardboard with vivid clear colorful printing- no odor. The puzzle board was shrink wrapped; however, the board arrived damaged on 4 of the 6 corners, the picture shows the plies of cardboard and the WORST of the damaged corners in the shrink wrap. I cant tell if the shrink wrap was too tight and split the corners-since the corners were exposed or if handing caused the damage to the corners- so Ill try to glue the multiple plies of carboard back together. I highly advise you to take a picture of the assembled puzzle prior to dismantling the pieces. It appeared easy enough...just 13 triangle puzzle pieces, but what makes this challenging is that 2 of the 3 sides may match multiple pieces. I passed this product to my husband to try and its been a half hour and hes still working at it. Just for my habit I will have to find proper storage for this puzzle board, a pouch or something, to keep all of the pieces intact and so the corners wont get damaged further from handling. Since I have 2 of these puzzles and will look to see if any more are available...I may just make a wooden storage box to house all of these triazzle puzzles to protect them and keep them together. The board measures 11.25 top to bottom and 12.75 side to side at its widest points. My husband did say that unlike regulkar puzzles without a perimeter, since this is recessed into a boundary board when you find youve placed a piece wrong it not easy to remove the one piece since there are no exposed edge so you have to pick the corner which may delaminate the puzzle piece. Overall, I would recommend these Ravensburger Triazzles. As for the cost...if you know whom the recipient is and that they enjoy and appreciate challenging brain teaser puzzles the price is right; however, I would not recommend this for someone that just enjoys a standard puzzle as they may get frustrated and not enjoy nor complete the puzzle- so for that the price wouldnt be worth it.
