Bepuzzled Classic Mystery Jigsaw Puzzle - Foul Play & Cabernet, Red

This puzzle was a lot of fun. I often try to put a puzzle together without looking at the picture, but usually give in to temptation and use the picture for help when I get stuck. With this puzzle, there was no way to give in to the temptation to use the picture as a guide, because there is no picture of the completed puzzle. It took quite a while to finish. The end was especially hard because there were large dark patches where the color seemed to be all the same, but, with the right light, one could see shadings and use both color and shape for finding where pieces fit. And then, there was the fun of using the picture to solve the mystery presented in the story. I will definitely order more of these BePuzzled mystery jigsaw puzzles.

I just now finished assembling the puzzle. It was difficult to put together without any idea of what the final picture was going to look like ... but I knew that when I bought it. The story booklet was well written and fun to read. Once the puzzle is complete, you can make assumptions on the answer to the 'who done it', however there isn't anything (at least that I could find) to confirm your assumption. I would post a picture here of the finished puzzle, but that would ruin the experience for the next person assembling it.

A challenging jigsaw, well cut with dark and subtle imagery. The mystery story is well written, alas the mystery solution was a quite arbitrary. The storied clues were insufficient to deduce exactly what was described in the finale. Still fun.

My husband bought this for our anniversary back in August. At that point we completed the border and put the puzzle away. We just restarted working on it and the puzzle never left the box. We just finished it. And it’s missing a piece. Total bummer. We wanted to frame our puzzle and now it’s missing a piece.

This was so much fun! Great for families. The puzzles was fun to put together and that was not the end of the fun. We had a weeks worth of fun

This is a well-made item and the recipient love it.

Thankfully, all the pieces were there. But that's where the list of "pros" ends.**SPOILERS AHEAD**As soon as we opened it up and saw the monochromatic nightmare in front of us we knew we were in for a terrible time. Then there's the mystery story, which was nice enough when we first read it, but after we solved the puzzle and reread it to solve the mystery, the story had almost nothing to do with picture! Lots of misnamed items of importance (a hand saw is different from a jigsaw, a rifle is different than a shotgun) made these important "clues" completely useless, and ultimately NONE of the clues in the story actually pointed towards the mystery's solution.We finished Death on the Istanbul Express and did not have any of these issues, so this ones a dud. Hopefully, their other puzzles are better.VERDICT: DO NOT BUY. It's boring, it's not fun and wouldn't please fans of mysteries OR fans of puzzles!

My family put this puzzle together on vacation...we had a great time and got it finished...it was a challenge but the story and puzzle were great!
