The Clearly Impossible Puzzle 100, 200, 500, 1000 Pieces Hard Puzzle for Adults Cool Difficult Clear Brain Teaser - Difficult Funny for Adults (100 Piece)

This puzzle is a lot harder than a normal jigsaw puzzle, which is exactly what makes it fun. Since the pieces are clear, you can’t rely on colors or patterns the way you normally would, so it really forces you to focus on the shapes of the pieces. The pieces feel sturdy and well cut, and they fit together nicely once you start figuring out where things go. It definitely takes patience, but that’s part of the challenge. This is a great puzzle if you enjoy brain teasers or want something more difficult than a typical puzzle. It’s also a funny gift idea for someone who likes puzzles and a good challenge. Overall, it’s frustrating in a good way and very satisfying once you start making progress.

This was the MOST fun I've ever had putting a puzzle together. I wanted a challenge and something unique, and this puzzle fit the bill. The added layer of difficulty not knowing whether the piece in hand is oriented "up" or "down" was fantastic. The pieces were very well cut - there is some movement even when they are put together due to the material, but this doesn't take from the quality or experience. I'm definitely keeping my fingers crossed for anything to match this challenge! I hope to see a clearly impossible puzzle with even more pieces or a different spin. --- Edit: May 2023 I recently discovered the release of the 1000 piece clearly impossible puzzle. This was an even more satisfying challenge than the 500 piece. I started the puzzle on April 24th and finished on May 27th. If you know an avid, confident puzzler this is a fantastic gift. If you like to complete puzzles but you don't enjoy sorting pieces this probably isn't the challenge for you. My best advice for completing this puzzle in a timely manner is sort, sort, sort. I first sort out all of the edge pieces like any other puzzle. No worries...the creators have thrown in false edges AND corners. The border of the 1000 piece was the most confusing guessing game I've ever had to play. After your border is together (and hopefully correct), I sorted every piece by shape and orientation. Then it's process of elimination working your way inward. Patience is required. An eye for "funky shapes" is extremely helpful. I will say that I think the 1000 piece had more "it looks like it fits but it doesn't fit" moments than the 500 piece did. I also think the pieces were a little bit of a rough cut. I took to taking nail clippers and snipping off the jagged edges that sometimes prevented pieces from a snug fit. Yes, just like the 500 piece there is still some "wiggle" to the puzzle. This is just the nature of the material. It simply isn't going to hold together like a cardboard puzzle. The scariest moment of the puzzle was realizing I had "lost" a piece. I knew for sure because it was an inner false edge piece and I was down to less than 100 pieces overall. I counted up all of the edge pieces of that shape in my sort tray and on the board...I had 25 but needed 26 with the missing piece. Thankfully I had taken a picture of the initial edge piece sort. Counted in that photo...26 pieces. I was lucky to find the missing piece on the floor. I was even luckier it was the only piece that was misplaced. Overall this was money and time well spent (for me). I await the next jigsaw challenge. 2000 pieces? 5000? A girl can dream.

I hold several world records for jigsaw puzzles, including (in the past) the 1000 and 500 world records. This made me cry. It's a beautifully created product; great quality and it keeps you guessing until the very end. All pieces wre there and it was about .4cm thick, so its fine but hurts to step on them. Its perfectly clear. I would not wish this puzzle upon anyone; it is an insane challenge.

Great gift for my Dad.

Overall I would say this was a fun puzzle. It's definitely challenging but possible. My teenage daughter received this as a Christmas gift, but became frustrated and gave up quickly. I thought it would offer a few hours of entertainment, but once started I had to finish it even though it took much longer than expected. Pros: Being clear, no discernible top, bottom, right side up, or upside down, combined with false edge and corner pieces made for a fantastic challenge. Cons: Many of the pieces are cut very similar, so the pieces that look like a perfect fit actually do not belong together. So sometimes you get several pieces together, then find nothing else fits to attach those pieces together. The back tracking to guess which piece was wrong was annoying. When done correctly, all of the pieces fit together loosely. However, many pieces slide together fairly tightly, then get jammed. They're fragile enough to then break when you pull the pieces apart. While I didn't break any pieces, my teen did. A little super glue fixed it right up, and you can't really tell where it broke unless you look really closely. It's important to be gentle while working.

Great puzzle! Not as challenging as I was hoping for though. I got the 100 pice and it took me about 2 hours. My kids even broke a piece as it is plastic and it didnt affect me doing the puzzle. My son however he gave up after he got the border done within 20 minutes. Lol

Have I completed it? No. It the quality great? Yes! This is a fun puzzle for sure, but very challenging. I know someday I'll complete it. For now I will just keep trying it a little everyday. I looked a lot of these puzzles up and this one was by far the best value.

Well it is definitely clear. I only recently got it but I have been working on this non-stop for like a week and let me say it sure as hell is clear. The biggest thing you need to worry about is catching pieces that fall, but there's only one way to put this puzzle together. There are plenty of false corners and edge pieces that are not actual edge or corner pieces and pieces. Although they may look like they fit together or completely unique so you have no way of knowing technically, even though it says there's only one way of putting it together. There's actually two right side up and upside down

Puzzle très sympa, pas impossible mais il faut de la concentration 😉

Schönes Puzzle, habe es auf dem Sofa zusammengebaut da man die Verbindungen besser sieht. Ist einfacher als ursprünglich gedacht. 4 Sterne, da ein dünnes Verbindungsstück geknickt war und der Preis für das kleine Puzzle relativ hoch ist. Es reflektiert je nach Lichteinfall und es hat Spaß gemacht.

Está increíble, me encantó

Sent this to my dad for his birthday. Unfortunately he passed away before he got a chance to finish it so my mum had a go but got frustrated and gave up. So if you are up for a difficult challenge this puzzle is for you.

El precio es algo elevado pero vale la pena.
