Jigsaw Puzzles?

[LadyOfMystery]

Anyone enjoy jigsaw puzzles? I love them and recently I found a website called www.jigsawexplorer.com where there's "e-jigsaw puzzles" you can do a daily ones, or a mystery friday one, and they have page after page of ones you can browse through.

It's become a daily ritual for me to do the daily puzzles. The only thing is they don't have a "multi-player" function where I can force...I mean...ask my friends to play with me.

But do you guys do jigsaw puzzles either the old fashion way or maybe an online one?

I hear they're getting popular with the quarantine going on lol

I'll teach you if you want. You definitely need tips.

Btw, I think this is relevant - I don't know if anyone remembers YankeeGirl, but I challenged her to an online game of Chess a few days ago. Since we both have Italian heritage, we sometimes joke about being from rival Italian families, and we decided to settle the dispute with an epic Chess match. I'm even thinking of playing epic movie soundtrack music while it's taking place.

You should. The game is not hard to learn, although hard to master.

I make no promises. I was looking at the instructions earlier on chess.com and my eyes glazed over a little.

You could probably learn just by playing. At least for online chess. It won't allow you to make a move you can't make. Lol.

I love Jigsaw puzzles and my fave are 1000 piece,I can do one in about two to 3 weeks.
I have loved puzzles since I was a kid and even at 3 yrs old would sit and do 100 piece puzzles.

Oh wow that is awesome! I haven't done a "real" Jigsaw in a long while but the website I use lets you set up how many pieces you can use. I usually have them between 130-160 pieces. That keeps me occupied for at least an hour lol

 

[sunshineforJesus]

Thats awesome.

Working on a puzzle this morning with my coffee.

Ahh the age of the millennial.

I'm not into them, but they look relaxing. I've heard of people getting 2 or more puzzles and mixing them in a bag before trying to do them. I presume they must not look at the picture beforehand (and/or that the colour palettes must be similar). It sounds interesting.

Are they relaxing or stimulating? Do they wind you down or up?
