The Mystic Maze • 1000-Piece Jigsaw Puzzle from The Magic Puzzle Company • Series One

I came across this puzzle on Amazon while shopping for Christmas, and based on its reviews, I decided to purchase one for our family. The quality did not disappoint! The pieces were beautiful, well cut, and organized. The shape of the pieces made it challenging find even with setting up the border. The guidance from two posters helped greatly! With it having 1,000 pieces, it was a large puzzle, and kept us entertained for several days. The surprise was awesome. It was so worth the buy. Upon the completion, I decided to buy a second puzzle kit! Definitely a fan.

I love the mystery included with this puzzle! The artwork is beautiful, it has a bunch of unusually shaped pieces, they only fit together when they are the correct pieces. The pieces have a nice finish and are sturdy. I would say it’s challenging, but I feel it is absolutely worth it. I highly recommend to anyone who enjoys puzzling and wants a little twist on the classic jigsaw.

Imagine embarking on a journey, an experience that transcends the ordinary confines of puzzle-solving. This puzzle is an explosion of vibrant colors and intricate patterns, with each piece a tiny masterpiece of swirling hues and fantastical designs. As you begin, you’re drawn into a world where reality blurs, and the abstract takes over.Each piece you fit together feels like uncovering a secret, revealing hidden connections and deeper layers of meaning. The process is both meditative and exhilarating, as the puzzle gradually transforms from chaos to a cohesive, mesmerizing whole.As the final pieces snap into place, there’s a sense of achievement that’s almost spiritual, a connection to something larger than yourself. This puzzle isn’t just about completing an image; it’s about the journey, the moments of clarity, and the sense of wonder that comes with each discovery. And then…

Don't buy this if you aren't prepared for your puzzle standards to shoot through the roof afterward. This is a seriously thoughtful, imaginative, beautiful puzzle and I'm looking forward to putting it together again in the near future.Let's start with what makes this puzzle different from the other puzzles we've done. Usually, a puzzle piece is a container holding a fragment of a design you then connect to other containers to complete a picture. This is what we're used to.THIS Puzzle, on the other hand, is different in that the puzzle and the picture both link to a story. The pieces aren't containers; rather, they are tiny bits of a story you're sharing with a specific character. Assembling the puzzle is the largest step to telling that story, but it isn't the ONLY step. Because of this, the interactivity offered by the puzzle goes even deeper than what your average puzzle offers!Contents and packaging: I sooooo appreciated the inclusion of TWO puzzle posters as opposed to one. Not only did it make for a great sharing; now I can frame one of the posters and keep the second in the box for next time.Everything is packaged up neatly, with reusable bags for the puzzle pieces and well-labeled surprises.Now, onto assembly: I found the tag of 1000 pieces to be pretty intimidating at first, but it was actually a breeze to assemble. Every piece is uniquely shaped and no two regions are alike in color or texture. A tree in the middle-right section of the puzzle will be vastly different from a tree in the middle-left section. That really helped when putting everything together! I notoriously end up with a few pieces fitting in the wrong place whenever I puzzle, but that did not happen ONCE with this one.There are plenty of interesting challenges to encounter when assembling the puzzle (like false-edge pieces) but we never felt frustrated or stuck. Every puzzling session it took to complete it left us feeling rewarded for our efforts, with little bits of story unfolding from every completed scene.My ONLY issue with this puzzle was that the pieces fit a little loose. It made doing some stuff near the end a challenge and we had to do some emergency reassembly at points. Honestly, not at all worth docking a star from what is easily a 10 star puzzle.Final Thoughts/Note to the PublishersDEFINITELY use Boya Sun's artwork in your next series of puzzles. Holy cow, the art is phenomenal. I need more Boya Sun artwork in my life from this point on. (Warning though: don't visit Boya Sun's portfolio if you haven't finished the puzzle, you may find spoilers! but definitely visit when you're done because wow! What a fantastic artist.)We were so charmed by the characters presented in the puzzle that we'd love to see another puzzle following their adventures. Such an imaginative cast.Keep being awesome. We'll be buying the next two puzzles in the series, but we have a feeling this one was the best one of the bunch! I hope to see more vibrant, adventurous puzzles from this company in the future.

The puzzle was pretty challenging but also very fun and with a good magic trick at the end. My only complaint is that we were missing 2 puzzle pieces that ended up being in the magic trick bag! Otherwise, this was great and I’d definitely recommend 😁😁😁

My daughters and I had a good time assembling this puzzle. It is really different, challenging, and surprising! Very satisfying and fun! A must for anyone who enjoys puzzles!

If you know someone who likes puzzles, this is a very unique take on it. Not only is there a scavenger hunt, there are secrets and odd puzzle shapes to explore giving a very fresh take on jigsaw puzzles. There's also an additional photo of the puzzle inside so one person isn't hogging the picture. I can't recommend this enough for puzzle lovers.

Fun puzzle. Easy to do and a fun extra part after you finish. Good quality pieces.

This puzzle was outside my budget. I normally try and spend $10-15 but the reviews were very positive so I thought I’d try it. And oh man! So much fun! When we first started my partner and I went to sure. But we were hooked. We couldn’t stop! The pieces were so odd and unique but extremely well cut. No dust at all. They included TWO diagrams which we’ve never had before and always had to share. The surprise ending was so much fun. Never seen anything like it. Absolutely new favourite puzzle company!

Genial para un fin de semana

Jätteroligt puzzel.

It’s my first puzzle from the magic puzzle company, and oh boy I am impressed by the amount of details in the graphics. Had a lot of fun playing it, and just ordered my second puzzle from them. Just wish the pieces will stick together more.

My 7 years old son was obsessed by this puzzle. Really loves all the tiny details and the funny pieces. Having a hidden secret ending was surely fun (but not as surprising as we initially imagine).Quality is really good, packaging is nice, but pieces fit a little bit loosely.
