What you need to know about puzzles

How do you play puzzles?

Here are some essential tips on how to play puzzles easily:

  • Assess the size of the puzzle frame before you start;
  • Group together the pieces that have a straight edge because they make up the frame;
  • Form the frame;
  • Make small piles of pieces that represent the same pattern or that are connected to a colour field;
  • Avoid wasting a lot of time on one piece;

If in doubt about whether 2 pieces fit together, simply turn them over and observe whether or not the edges match to be sure.
