Customer Reviews

Great!

An outstanding collection of puzzles, mind teasers, riddles, and more. There are a few that don't quite seem to make the grade, but in a collection this size, there's plenty to keep you occupied for hours!

Boggle you for Sure!

How could a boy be born in May, although his birthday was in June? Then grow up to marry his mother? Can ya' guess? No, neither could I. I only gave one of the EASY riddles. You can expect a nice big variety of logic puzzlers, twisty and turny mazes, caclulations that really make you concentrate, visual puzzles where the eye can outsmart the brain, and activity bogglers that make you work to find that hard to reach solution. Also, if you come upon a teaser that just can't be possible to answer...you flip to the back of the book to find the solution. Then you get to see if your friends can deduct the answer!
