Nautilus, 429 pieces. Nautilus's spiky cuts aren't my favorites, but they indisputably match certain subjects, like tigers! Steady assembly due to the areas of distinct color. 3/5

Good as Gold
Stave, 50 pieces. This is marked as a Touzzle, though I didn't think it was quite as much of a challenge as previous ones I've done, which justifies the three-sword rating. For whatever reason, it didn't feel like the fit was as perfect-when-right as usual, which was occasionally frustrating. 5/10

Chris Yates, Baffler #4822 Sunset River
Chris Yates, 51 pieces. Another delightful benefit of Artifact's Hoefnagel rental club: the occasional unique puzzle, like this one, with a small piece count but wonderful hand feel. 4/5
Pilates
Stave, 340 pieces. I love Stave's rental program. I understand those who find it too pricey, but I love Stave's quality and cleverness, and the rental program allows me to build puzzles I never usually would. This one is another pleasure, with workout whimsies. 7/10
this one, I don't know: great exertion? |
