I love Treasures! Like a massive teaser/treat combo puzzle. This one has a challenging frame, with fantastic details and irregular edges, and sorting out the animals in each pond/cage is great! Just enough hints written on the signs. Adorable animal shapes and lots of lovely elements (double decker, 3-D,). I think these puzzles are the most fun that Stave makes!
I love the Treasure category of puzzles because they demonstrate so many different aspects of what makes Stave puzzle designs so unique and challenging. The Traditional part of the puzzle is more difficult than I expected, and involves building the "framework" into which you'll then place all of the Teaser type pieces. It was quite fun figuring out where all of the different animals belonged and then getting them into their places. If you're up for a challenge, I highly recommend this puzzle!
