Pixels and Pizza Puzzle from Buffalo Games

I wouldn’t be surprised if some people have two different reactions to the puzzles designed by Aimee Stewart, one of our favorite artists. First, the images are always ‘cool’, usually of retro scenes and items. Lots of colors. Lots of things. And that’s why we buy them. But I admit, when we opened the box of the Pixels and Pizza puzzle from Buffalo Games our first thought was “Yowsa, how we gonna sort this thing?” If sorting the pieces first is your thing, this puzzle can be a bit challenging. Colors, everywhere. If you sort by color you’re in for a challenge (sorting by objects might be easier!). But, one thing’s for sure. You cannot beat the final result!

No Worries

Luckily, sorting this Pixels and Pizza puzzle from Buffalo Games really isn’t that bad after you dive in and get started. Each piece had enough of an identifiable object on it that finding its place in the puzzle was actually fairly easy. And a lot of fun. And when we were done, we found ourselves standing there pointing. “Foosball!” “Boom box!” All the neat nostalgic things to look at and enjoy. This is another great Aimee Stewart puzzle. It started out looking like a monumental challenge but in the end was actually almost easy. Almost.

The Last Piece

This puzzle included a poster. There are 1000 very colorful pieces in this puzzle. The assembled puzzle is about 20″ high and 27″ wide. The pieces fit tightly and it’s fairly hard (but not impossible) to put a piece into the wrong place without it being obvious. This was a great puzzle.

Storin’ Up Puzzle from Buffalo Games

Doing a Charles Wysocki puzzle is like coming home from a long vacation. Familiar. Comforting. We had just completed a rather tough puzzle. Oh it was fun, don’t get me wrong. But it took a while and really exercised our brains. It was time for something a bit less challenging for us. Not easy, but just a little less taxing on our brains. This Storin’ Up Puzzle from Buffalo Games was perfect for that. We’ve done many a Charles Wysocki puzzle, so its familiarity was a welcome thing for us.

Comfort In A Puzzle

When you’ve done a number of Wysocki puzzles you’ll soon realize that there are usually similar objects to be found from puzzle to puzzle. Horses. Trees. Houses. Paths. Grass. All fairly similar. But not boring. They’re definitely not a case of ‘you’ve done one, you’ve done them all’. They’re all fun and challenging in their own ways. Just like this Storin’ Up Puzzle from Buffalo Games. We’ll never get tired of them!

This puzzle included a poster. There are 1000 pieces in this puzzle. The assembled puzzle is about 20″ high and 27″ wide. The pieces fit tightly and it’s fairly hard (but not impossible) to put a piece into the wrong place without it being obvious. The colors were very good. This was a great puzzle.

Tranquility Puzzle from Spin Master

Calm is an app for your phone that plays soundscapes or music to help you sleep, focus and relax. Kinda like puzzling. So it makes sense that the makers of Calm and Spin Master teamed up to do a number of puzzles that pair with Calm. The images on the puzzle are calming too, even if you don’t have Calm! We found this Tranquility Puzzle for sale used at one of our favorite antique malls. I’ve scored big and often at it. I’d tell you the name but I don’t want to lose on my favorite sources for puzzles. Sorry!

Big Pieces. Big Fun.

We don’t do many 300 piece puzzles. We tend to have mostly 1000 piece ones going. We puzzle so often that I’m afraid if we did only 300 (or even 500) piece ones we’d have to add a storage unit to the house just to keep up with them. When we do a smaller puzzle it always amazes me how big the pieces are. But that doesn’t always mean easier. The darker areas of this puzzle were still quite the challenge. This Tranquility Puzzle from Spin Master was a fun puzzle. And yes, it was relaxing too!

The Last Piece

This 300 piece puzzle was brightly colored and peaceful! The assembled puzzle is about 24″ wide and 18″ high. The pieces fit very well. It was a fairly easy puzzle to complete, though the darker areas were a bit more challenging. The pieces are nice and large, and thick. They’re easy to handle to boot!

Mountain Retreat Puzzle from Buffalo Games

This Mountain Retreat Puzzle from Buffalo Games is a ‘Night and Day’ puzzle. I didn’t even really notice that when we bought it, but it says it right on the box! Yep. The puzzle goes from night (right) to day (left). Or ‘Day and Night’ if you want to look at it the other way. Anyway, it’s kinda different. A lot of this puzzle is kinda different actually. This was a fun what I call ‘clip-art’ puzzle. Things everywhere. But they made sense. Some ‘clip-art’ puzzles look like someone just dragged-and-dropped stuff randomly onto a screen. Not this one. It was fun. And colorful.

Sit Back. Relax. And Enjoy.

We had just finished a large, really hard puzzle. Not that that’s a bad thing. But we needed a little something to get us over it… Something a little easier. But not so easy that we weren’t challenged at least a bit. This Mountain Retreat puzzle from Buffalo Games was perfect for that. Lots of colors. Lots of fun. Challenging but not frustratingly so!

The Last Piece

This 1000 piece puzzle included a poster. The trees were the hardest part to complete, we think. The assembled puzzle is about 27″ wide and 20″ high. The pieces fit kinda tightly. The color and image quality are fantastic.

New York Puzzle from Dowdle

Vibrant and whimsical, Dowdle puzzles are popular in our household. And they can be very challenging, especially the larger piece-count ones. Luckily, perhaps, I ran across this New York Puzzle from Dowdle at an antique mall and it only had 300 pieces. “Whew”, I thought, “A Dowdle I can finish in less than a week!”. It’s not that I’m in a race. But the bigger ones take a long time and that day, I wanted something quick. A puzzle that I could sit back and enjoy the final result in a matter of hours, and not days. And this was it.

A Tale Of Two Cities

Our New York Puzzle from Dowdle was used. And maybe older. I’m not sure. But I do know when I looked for it on Amazon what I found was a totally different puzzle. So apparently, there are two ‘New York’ puzzles from Dowdle? Our version was totally fun. The other looks fun too! But I wanted you to know in case you go searching for the one we made, you might find something different!

The Last Piece

This 300 piece puzzle included a poster. The assembled puzzle is about 15″ wide and 1″ high. The pieces fit tightly. Our puzzle was purchased used. You could tell that the previous owner (or owners!) had some issue with determine where some pieces went as they are dog-eared in spots. The color and image quality were quite good. This was classic Dowdle, and fun to assemble and enjoy in the end!

Garden’s Glory Puzzle from Buffalo Games

We recently finished our first 1000 piece puzzle of some of Darrell Bush’s artwork. We loved Loon Lake so much that the next time we were at our grocery store we picked up a few more puzzles from Mr. Bush. Like his others, the Garden’s Glory puzzle from Buffalo Games was truly fantastic…. when it was completed. But boy, it was a challenge. Many similar colors gave us hours of enjoyable difficulty. It was all worth it. This is a great piece of art. And one that is definitely frame-worthy!

Red. Green. White.

There are quite a few red pieces in this puzzle. And green. And white. They can give you fits, too. If you’re looking for a puzzle that will give you several hours of quality puzzling time, Garden’s Glory puzzle from Buffalo Games is it. I highly recommend Darrell Bush’s art if you are looking for great lighting and colors. We’ve enjoyed them all. And we are looking forward to the other puzzles of his that we have in our (rather large) to-do pile!

Old Town Cats Puzzle from PICKFORU

We do not frame our completed puzzles. This Old Town Cats Puzzle from PICKFORU almost changed our minds about that. This is definitely a frame-worthy puzzle. Its retro-like cats would match some of the retro-like cats found in our home. It’s a fun picture. And it was a fun puzzle to assemble too, even though it definitely had its challenges! It’s a quality puzzle with a great image that is really fun to stand back and enjoy for a while.

A Tale (Tail?) Of Letters

The pieces in this Old Town Cats Puzzle from PICKFORU have letters on the backs to assist in sorting. We used them. I admit it. Some people don’t like them. Some love them. This is going to be a fun puzzle for you no matter which way you go. There are only 6 different letters, so it’s not like you still don’t have some work ahead of you even if you do sort based on them. The letters might help but they don’t do the puzzle for you!

The Last Piece

This puzzle included a nice poster. You could actually frame the poster instead! There were 1000 pieces in this puzzle. The pieces fit tightly. Quite tightly. They are light and have a shiny, almost plastic feel to them. I’m not saying that as a bad thing, they just felt different than other puzzles. It wasn’t easy to have ‘false fits’, so you could pretty much rest easy that when a piece went in, it went in to the right spot. This puzzle was a nice challenge and enjoyable to look at. It was around 24″ high and 24″ wide when completed.

Yum Yum Puzzle from Ceaco

We have a few favorite antique malls where we are almost guaranteed to find great used puzzles. They’re not technically antiques, as we tend to buy newer puzzles. But still, we can usually find good quality used puzzles at a good price. Like this Yum Yum Puzzle from Ceaco. It’s smaller than we usually buy, with only 300 pieces, butwe liked the artwork and the price. So it went home with us (along with a stack of others). We’re glad it did too, because this was a very enjoyable puzzle. It didn’t take long to complete, but it was a fun journey and that’s the whole point!

Thanks. Now I’m Hungry.

The thing about assembling food-related puzzles is that we get hungry. It never fails. Maybe we should stop buying them. But we can’t. Everything in this Yum Yum puzzle from Ceaco looks tasty. Tasty yummy good. Yum Yum in fact!

This puzzle did have a few sections that slowed us down for a bit. The fries for example. And the popcorn. And the burgers too. But not for long. This isn’t an overly-challenging puzzle, but it’s not a total cakewalk (oh, there’s that food thing again!) either.

The Last Piece

This 300 piece puzzle included a nice, large poster. The assembled puzzle is about 24″ wide and 18″ high. The pieces (very large!) fit very well and the colors were nice. The pieces went and fit where they should, so there weren’t any ‘false fits’. The images are fun and, well, yummy!

Devilstone Harbor Puzzle from Buffalo Games

We’re pretty money-conscious in our house. We believe that puzzling is a great hobby for those looking to get the most out of their entertainment dollar. What else can you spend hours and hours on for (usually) less than $20? All in the comfort of your own home. In your jammies no less (if desired). With your favorite music on. However you want to do it, it’s a great pastime.

This Devilstone Harbor Puzzle from Buffalo Games gave us more than our money’s worth. It took us a while to complete. The final result was fantastic to sit back and enjoy. It’s puzzles like this that keep us puzzling pretty much every day of the week!

Classic Charles Wysocki

We are always attracted to puzzles of the works from Charles Wysocki. This Devilstone Harbor Puzzle from Buffalo Games is typical of the art he did that we like to do as puzzles. Scenes of times gone by. Rural scenes, usually. Or small towns and farms. Rolling hills and lots of trees. And often, whimsical characters and stores. These are fun puzzles for us, no matter how complicated some may be. Or easy. Or small. Or large. Doesn’t matter, we love them all!

The Last Piece

This 2000 piece puzzle included a nice, large poster. The assembled puzzle is about 39″ wide and 27″ high. It just fit the puzzle board we were using. The pieces fit very well and the image quality on the pieces is very good. We did have a few ‘false fits’ along the way but they weren’t frustrating at all. The colors were great and bright. The artwork is fun and whimsical.

Camping Adventure Puzzle from Dowdle

One thing we can always count on from a Dowdle puzzle is a challenge for us. The colors throughout are similar, making it a bit more difficult to know where a piece goes. That’s ok. We’re not in a hurry. And we certainly always enjoy the final result. Although all of the Dowdle works are similar in style, the locations are always different. This Camping Adventure puzzle was full of whimsical items and people, and was another true joy to assemble!

Go Small. Or Big.

We usually do 1000-piece Dowdle puzzles. Or any puzzle for that matter. But we picked up this 300-piece Camping Adventure puzzle used. I wasn’t going to pass it up no matter how many pieces it had. I will say, a 300-piece Dowdle is quite a bit easier than a 1000! Easier. But not easy! This was still a great, enjoyable challenge! Now, I must go get more Dowdle puzzles!

The Last Piece

This 300 piece puzzle included a nice poster. The assembled puzzle is about 21″ high and 15″ high. The pieces fit very well and the colors were nice. We had very few ‘false fit’ pieces. Everything went and fit where it should. The images are fun. This was a tough puzzle in places, making it well worth the price!

Oh, and it was full of fun things!
