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

I actually got these for my son who is 4 years old. I thought since its just a bunch of triangles they would be easy to put together. Boy was I wrong. I have yet to complete one. The one I got closest to is all done but the last 3 pieces. Thats what makes these so tough. You think you got it solved until the last few pieces.

This is a fun puzzle that is also challenging for an 8 year old. Its not like your standard puzzle, as multiple pieces can fit in each slot. So it really becomes a process of elimination. I needed to help my child this puzzle, as she is not accustomed to this type of puzzle. Its challenging and we havent even finished it yet. The pieces are sturdy, and my kid liked the colorful butterflies. Id say this is a fun and challenging puzzle for a 7-12 year old.

I used to do these puzzles every day after school as a kid at the local Boys and Girls Club so I was really excited to run across this here. And it was just as I remember it! My 4.5 year old came up and was feeling really confident putting pieces in their place for a bit until it wasn’t all adding up and she got frustrated (it is rated as 8+ years and is considered challenging). There are several similar pieces so you don’t usually know you have something in the wrong place until you get down to just a few pieces left and then have to backtrack! Even as an adult, there was still enough challenge that I enjoyed doing this puzzle again!

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.

This Frog Triazzle puzzle is so much fun and definitely a challenge. When we first opened it everyone thought they could do it quickly then soon realized it tricks you with the multiple locations for pieces. Really gets you thinking ahead and using problem solving which makes this puzzle great for all ages. I love the size as it easily stores in between the games in the cabinet. We are very happy with the challenging fun of this puzzle and feel it would make a great gift.

I first received a couple of these Triazzle puzzles when I was about 8 years old, and I have fond memories of solving them over and over. These are a little smaller than the puzzles used to be in the 2000s, but the same sturdy quality is still there. I’m so glad they are rereleasing them. There are some strategies to learn and it’s a lot of fun figuring them out. I even got to the point where I would time myself to see how fast I could solve one. I highly recommend placing all the pieces in a ziplock bag when not playing with it. This is also better for repeat solving because you won’t remember where any of the pieces belong. However, if you do lose a piece, the board is still solvable with just one missing piece. If you already bought your puzzle and are really struggling to solve, a good strategy is to start from one corner and work your way out. Pick out all the tiles that could fit in one corner of the board and try any combination that lets you keep progressing. It’s a puzzle on the process of elimination.

This butterflies puzzle is a fun challenge. It is one that can be done again and again. There are triangular shaped pieces that fit into a triangle shaped backboard. The permanent edges along the board have the design too, so that you have a place to start. Each side of each triangle has half a butterfly or butterflies. The trick is to fit all the halves together to complete the puzzle. Multiple pieces look as if they can fit in the corner spots, so its a matter of trial and error until they all get placed properly. Its like its a new puzzle each time. Ive really been enjoying it.

This puzzle is a real distraction for little ones (8+), although after time they will need help from an adult. It can be challenging but putting it back together is attainable. I used this to time the kids and see how much they can complete due to the time getting lengthy after the first child trying.

When I was a young teenager I had a cool puzzle that consisted of 9 square cards with half of a frogs body on each side of each square. You had to arrange the cards just right to complete the puzzle and make whole frogs and there was only one way to solve. It was super challenging but definitely worked your brain – so I thought why not give this one a try. This one is more challenging to me even as there are many more pieces and it REALLY works your brain. The game claims to be good for ages 8 and up. I can not imagine a child trying to solve this without getting frustrated or losing interest. Personally I think teens and adults are more suited – but what do I know – maybe I was a dumb kid. : ) It is challenging and pretty. It is printed and constructed well. Everything is contained inside the main outside triangle border. The only thing is that I do wish it came in a reusable sleeve for storage. It comes in plastic shrink wrap but once you rip that open it is gone and you just have the board and all the pieces. I found a plastic sleeve from something else and inserted it to store. Otherwise, this is such a nice game/puzzle. Would make a good gift for those that like puzzles and a challenge as well. I hope that you have found my review “helpful”. : ) Enjoy your day! : )

A puzzle and a brain teaser all in one. Youre going to need a lazy afternoon to tackle this one. I took a photo before I started and Im glad I did because I had to give up and go do other things. Its good quality with nice thick pieces, but the pieces were bowed a bit when all of them were in the frame so the surface was not flat. Perhaps the humidity here caused them to swell. A sleeve to store it in would be nice since I didnt trust the pieces to stay put. It fits in a 2-gallon Ziploc. I will pull this out again at a family gathering. I think the adults will have fun with it, but it might be too frustrating for the kids.
