worthy 2009-04-30

Its a jigsaw came that uses flowers and patterns for the pictures.

Also there is another by the same make if you look above this called puzzle baby animals which is exactly the same but uses animals as pictures.

People of all genders love jigsaw puzzles, they are a good way to unwind when you have finished all the dragon slaying and platform jumping. I think this is the first European jigsaw game, previously only Japanese games available. This game is just OK, it could have been a bit better (subject matter very specialised). I found that the pieces were scattered all over the place, so you need to be scrolling up, down, left and right etc to get a look at them all and I had to use the stylus to drag them all in nearer to the 'mat'. It was like having a small jigsaw spread over a huge coffee table! Back to the 'mat' you can change the background colour, but which ever shade you choose the 'mat' is only about 1 shade darker so doesn't stand out particularly well. You can use a help button to highlight all the edge pieces, but then when left with the middle bits it gets quite tricky. If you do like jigsaw puzzles I recommend one of the Japanese ones, say rom number 2089 Jigsaw puzzle DS if you are prepared to fiddle through the Japanese instructions (just open all the boxes) you can find some interesting and varied pictures to assemble, also I love the fact that when you find the right piece it automatically locks in to place (does that make me super lazy). Anyway just the mad ramblings of a Brit girl.
