The Peckish Pirates • 1000-Piece Jigsaw Puzzle from The Magic Puzzle Company • Series Four

These are my family's favorite puzzles. We've bought every single one that has come out so far. The puzzles are challenging but also fun. We love the unique shapes, the hidden items to find, the story that goes with them, and of course the magic shift part of the puzzle at the end! We have recommended these to many people that we know who do puzzles and are looking for something different or unique. The packaging is also very high quality like the puzzle pieces.

We love these puzzles! My 7 years old son got to experience his first magic puzzle a few months ago and he loved it so much we had to order another one. The puzzles are high quality, durable and definitely work the month. This particular puzzle seemed harder than the first one we solved, but we persevered and finished it just the other day.

Me and my husband have done two of these puzzles so far and they dont disappoint. The puzzle is fun to put together, and has a twist at the end that really brought it together! Consisted of fun shapes and great detailing of the characters. Great quality!

For a puzzle family, we have never seen anything like these puzzles! Fun and fast (You can do it in an afternoon.) We have bought all of them now. :-) You can pass them along to others as there is a sheet to sign. Another thing I have not seen before.

These puzzles are amazing! I bought one to try it out and had to buy more.. all the little details are so fun! It feels like a lot of thought and care is put into them. Highly recommend!

The company that makes these puzzles are amazing. They have lots of Easter eggs and very cool images and it makes the puzzle very interesting to do. The puzzle shapes will also throw you through loop. My family has gotten all of the styles of this puzzle. We cannot wait until another one comes out.

VERY fun puzzle! Highly recommend. We bought this puzzle to work on as a family during spring break. Kids love it! It's like a "Where's Waldo" kind of thing--so fun for the kids to look for all the little easter eggs and funny shenanigans of the Pesky Pirates.The colors of the puzzle are a little different compared to the picture, but it really wasnt that big of a deal to me. If you have half a brain and use context clues you will figure out where puzzle pieces go juuuussst fine. If my 7 and 9 year old can work it out, so can you!What bothered me the most (hence my 4 stars), was the little warning regarding how much space we'd need for the puzzle. The outside of the box does give the correct size of the puzzle once it's completely finished (surprise ending included), but fails to really warn how much space you'll need to move stuff around--I was taken by surprise in more ways than one (not all good 😆) when I realized I was going to have to rearrange the whole puzzle. I had used a small, collapsable table to fit in our living room while we watched TV (having measured previously to make sure the 28" by 21" fit). So I thought I was in the clear. Since I'm a first-time user of these lovely puzzles, the words "magic shift" on the outside of the box didn't make a whole lot of sense until the surprise 😆 in retrospect I did make a pretty dumb assumption, but hopefully I'm not the only one out there haha. One reviewer said this surprise had her "swearing like a drunken sailor" which was pretty accurate for me as well 😂 so just beware--HAVE LOTS OF SPACE ON A HARD, FLAT SURFACE.Otherwise, a really really fun puzzle and will be buying other series, now that I'm aware of the tricks 😉

These jigsaw puzzles are absolutely the best! Whenever the company announces a new release, we have to buy it. The art work is always fantastic and the mystery challenge at the end is delightfully surprising. If you've never tried one of these puzzles before, you owe it to yourself to get one. Highly recommended!
