“Whew”. We both said it at the same time as the last piece went in. This Moonlight and Roses puzzle from Buffalo Games challenged us both. From start to finish. The imagery was fantastic. The journey, though, was long. This was an older puzzle we acquired used from an antique mall for $4. We got more than our money’s worth that’s for sure!
Where Did It Go?
Our Moonlight and Roses Puzzle from Buffalo Games was missing a piece. It was a used puzzle. I can never get over how when a puzzle is missing a piece, it’s only one. Not two. Not five. But one. But it’s worse. We got down to two ‘holes’ in our puzzle. We had only one piece. And it didn’t fit into either place. We looked and looked and could not find the issue.
The solution? Flip the puzzle over. It wasn’t easy. And it was obvious which piece (it was just one!) we had wrong. Sometimes you just have to do it. Usually we just have to flip a section, but this time we had to flip the entire thing. So in the end, we had just one missing piece. We still enjoyed the puzzle.
We love puzzles of Charles Wysocki’s works. This one is a little different for us. The ones we’ve done in the past were rural scenes, of farms and towns, in an Americana style art. This was not like those, but a lot of fun!
The Last Piece
This puzzle contains 1000 pieces. The final puzzle is about 27″ wide and 20″ high. There is a poster included. The pieces fit fairly well. The image is very well-done and fun to look at. We did buy the puzzle used and there was some wear (and a missing piece).
