Ravensburger -Krypt Puzzle - Gold (631 PC)

Ravensburger makes some of the best quality puzzles around, and the Krypt Gold 631 is no exception. The pieces are thick and lock together nicely. I thoroughly enjoyed building the puzzle which I was able to do over the course of a weekend. Overall the puzzle was well worth the money spend. In fact, I decided to purchase the other two Krypt puzzles by Ravensburger. Below are 5 quick hints/observations that you may find useful. 1. Ravensburger includes a black and white picture of the finished puzzle that you can use as a key. I recommend using it! Note- On my copy, it showed one large piece (which I thought I was missing a piece), but turned out to be an error in the drawing. It was actually two separate pieces. I’m not sure if I could of completed it without going crazy without using the key. 2. Since there is no picture, I would recommend sorting the pieces by number of holes/tabs, boarders, sizes, etc. as you take them out of the box. This will help reduce the number of possible “trys” you will need to attempt per piece. Sorting the pieces as you take them out of the box also keeps the puzzle dust in the bag instead of all over your work surface. 3. If you plan on buying a frame for the puzzle, it measures 19 ¾ x 27 ¾, a 20x28 frame works nicely. 4. The puzzle is well made and tight fitted, if you find a piece that works but just a little off, it is not the right piece!. I read some other reviews where people had to trim some pieces, this should not be the case. 5. If you intend to use sticky sheets (this is what I use) to keep your puzzle together, I found that it was easy to flip your puzzle over if you build it on a scrap piece of drywall. Use another scrap piece when completed to put on top and then flip it over. Some people recommend sandwiching your puzzle between two pieces of cardboard, but I found that drywall was much easier since cardboard tends to bend and flex.

Wenn man viel puzzlet, ist das mal eine willkommene Abwechslung. Wir haben ohne die Lösungshilfe gestartet, was es aber sehr schwer macht. Selbst der klassische Ansatz, mit dem Rand zu beginnen funktioniert nicht, da die Randteile nicht alle untereinander verbunden werden. Irgendwann haben wir dann doch die Lösungshilfe ausgepackt, und damit hat es auch viel mehr Spaß gemacht und war gut lösbar. Ist ja wie bei einem klassischen Puzzle, bei dem man das fertige Bild auf der Schachtel als Hilfe nimmt.

Cool puzzle that almost drove my son crazy, haha :-p

It's amazing but it's definitely not for beginners, it's a great challenge and great quality but get ready to cry a bit cause it's definitely not easy to do it.

Me encantó!! El Nivel de dificultad es excelente porque trae piezas uniformes y únicas, trae un instructivo que te ayuda mucho para guiarte y no perderte, lo único que encontramos distinto es que en ellas aparece una pieza grande que en realidad está formada por dos piezas; en un inicio pensamos que no venía, pero al terminar el rompecabezas nos dimos cuenta de que esa pieza no existe y la sustituyen dos piezas más. La calidad es excelente, el color es un ocre metálico mate muy bonito. Se los recomiendo.
