Puzzling

[mishajames]

Mom and I have been doing jigsaw puzzles. Not the usual kind, but mystery puzzles. Rather interesting. There's a story, usually a murder and the solution is in the finished picture. So, naturally, there is not a completed picture on the box. I rather like the idea of putting together the puzzle without really knowing what the completed picture

I haven't seen any mystery puzzles with an Christie or Holmes style but I wouldn't be surprised if there are. We found the two Vegas CSI puzzles at Wal*Mart and the rest at a comic book store. Mom had done some searching online and found many mystery puzzles. Seems it's just tricky to find places 'round here that sell 'em.

I'm a BIG CSI fan - where do you get those puzzles?
What are they called?..mystery puzzles?

We found the two Vegas CSI puzzles at Wal*Mart. The same manufacturers also make two CSI: NY puzzles. Oddly, the CSI: Miami puzzle is made by a different puzzle company so it doesn't have the little UV light (which was a really cool addition). The Miami one has a code imbedded in the puzzle which really didn't add to the mystery but was merely tedious but, overall, the puzzle was pretty good. We found the Miami one at a comic book store.

Oh and, yeah, they all seem to be called "mystery puzzles" or "mystery jigsaw puzzles".
