The kids had an amazing time with this puzzle. We got multiple children on a video call and they did as a virtual team. Great for lockdown!

We played the Wizard and the Old manor themed games – both are excellent value for money. Nice design, straightforward setup, playable both inside and outside – they do save a lot of time for a lazy (uhm… occupied…) parent like me 🙂
