The 500 Piece puzzle

Stephentlig

How many of you actually bother with these puzzle games anymore? I bought one at a charity shop today and thought ''oh aye, that'll be good craic later when I'm bored'' took it home laid it out and it turned out to be more stressful and annoying than a game of scrabble.

Has the love for the puzzle game dwindled in Ireland? do any of you actually do it and get great fun out of it? I ask because I dont know of anyone that does.

I've been playing guess who a bit lately. It's great.

I took a few jigsaws out of my attic the other day, must get started on one.

Needs more toy and boardgame forum tbh.

I love jigsaw puzzles. When I was pregnant 2 years ago I managed to finish 5,000 piece Views of Modern Rome and 2 other puzzles 2,000 pieces each. I would love to try the 18,000,000 Ravensburger jigsaw but I don't have enough space or time to give it a go. Oh well, maybe one day...:cool:

i got a present of one of these recently, got the daughters involved, had great craic, thaught it would have been a bit ghay tbh, but with a glass of wine and the banter, we had a ball, loved the time with my girls.

Haven't done a jigsaw for years.
Played a game of monopoly recently with drink involved, it went on for 8 hours, got serious, dismantled some old friendships and forged some new ones then had to be abandoned before there was war.

What a game

I love jigsaws but haven't done one for a while because they seem a bit expensive. Also, I'd prefer something over 1000 but that's the highest I can seem to find locally. I did so many as a kid (I liked to carpet my bedroom floor with them) that I tend to fly through them.

18 million? Did I read that right?

I do *.rar puzzles these days. Basically you put all the pieces together and you get yourself a nice little picture.

Are we talking puzzles here, or something else entirely different?
