Do you like puzzles? From jigsaw puzzles to various puzzle toys such as Rubicks cubes, slider puzzles, etc.

I try to do as many puzzles as I can. The more challenging a puzzle is the more I will generally like it.

What types of puzzles have you done that are either really fun or really challenging?

We found a puzzle (just regular one) that is a picture of jelly beans. I think it might have been at Walmart. If you want a challenging puzzle pick it up and try it. We gave up, it was just too much.

I'm thinking more along the lines of actual puzzles.. not virtual ones.

But yeah Zelda had some insane puzzle areas in it.

And wow kiwi that puzzle sounds insane. That would take forever to figure out.

Virtual puzzles like Zelda and Tetris were always cool and fun.

I don't like any puzzle games. I guess my mind has been trained and upgraded to cool stuff like Nintendo and if it tries to go back to what my mom and dad did back in the 70's it'll explode. I'll only touch a puzzle if the power is out.

I enjoy sudoku and kakuro (Not sure if I spelt them right).
And also love jigsaw puzzles but never have the time for them anymore.

Do pick up sticks count as puzzle toy? I like the wire puzzle ones and I played with a wooden puzzle - it looks like a snake at first but you have to figure out how to twist and turn it so it would fit into a perfect square.

There's this really cool puzzle (originally made of wood) with (I think 7 or 9) different sized geometric shapes and you need to create different shapes using all the shapes.

I have this 500 piece mount rushmore puzzle.

it was a lot of fun to solve the entire thing though it took a long time because all of the pieces look the same.

I borrowed this other puzzle from a friend it was a 5000 piece puzzle in space so almost every piece was just solid black, it was the craziest thing ever.
