I liked this one. It required slow, methodical focus, there being only two color areas- the dark tortie cat and the yellow/green of the flower field. I expected it to be harder than it was, and found it enjoyable. Just a little bit of finger pain, which I mostly ignored. It’s a bit above average with the piece cut- the ordinary number of knob/indent varieties, but some “arms” with quirky shapes and such, which made it fun, and a little easier to eyeball the piece fits.
I did notice there was quite a bit of puzzle dust with this one. I keep wondering why this Ceaco set is lower in quality than the National Parks one- maybe just because it’s a decade older? I’ll have to pay attention, if I get another newer-made Ceaco puzzle, does it feel like the National Parks set. (If not, I assume that one was made special quality for a gift shop or something).
From the Ivory Cats boxed set.
