This puzzle was fun. Lots of different colors and visual patterns. Nice, sturdy pieces- a bit too much glare for my taste, but it wasn’t terrible. The random piece cut was full of unique shapes. Plenty that pretended to be edges, but weren’t (not a single one of these is actually an edge piece, though I had them all sorted out for that) but that just adds to the challenge! (And there was one piece on the bottom edge that should have been obvious to pick out from the others, but eluded me until I was a good way into the puzzle)
Some very skinny ones too.
Also challenging was that the whole picture had this subtle wavy texture. It looks to me like a digital painting that had the texture applied over everything- and that made it tricky to discern between pieces of similar colors, because the texture looked the same whether it was lion fur, pale grass, or elephant hide!
Some details- leopard
bee-eater
and this one that really confused me: why are there canada geese in a picture of African animals? My first thought was well, maybe they migrate there but I looked it up and no, they don’t. There’s plenty other types of geese and waterfowl in Africa that could be alongside giraffes, zebra and lions- but not this species. It kind of annoyed me.
