How does this compare to the LonPos puzzle??

It's virtually the same as the Lonpos puzzle. There is a version of Lonpos that's 3d, i.e., you have to build a pyramid . I think it was Mindware that used to sell it. Haven't seen that anywhere else.

I thought they were the same thing when I first saw IQ Fit. (We have the LonPos puzzle as "Kanoodle".) It is a different puzzle. This board has holes in it. You have to place all the pieces into the puzzle so the top is completely flat. Therefore, to get everything in the right places, you have to turn twist and make sure the excess nubs go down into the board holes. The challenges tell you where to place a few of the pieces. Then you have to figure out the rest. Personally, I like this one more than LonPos.

The alphabet puzzle is recommended for 3+ because there are small parts and the number and fish puzzles is 2+. If you have a child that places things in their mouth still I would hold off on the number puzzle also just because of the # 1.

Oh dear, I'm not sure what you mean by "interlocking" or "random-cut". I can say that the pieces fit nicely and are unique enough that you cannot join two pieces that don't actually go together (like the ones in the cheaper puzzle I am working on now). Also, this is not a "Japanese" style where all pieces are shaped the same. I found that I could locate some pieces based upon shape rather than color and pattern. The border presents a different challenge than the interior (cat, background, and flowers), because of the repeating pattern (look closely - there are variations). It is a very enjoyable puzzle to complete. You won't be disappointed. Oh dear, I'm not sure what you mean by "interlocking" or "random-cut".

I had the same problem. Solved this puzzle three different ways (ball in wooden basket, plants thriving in the light) and didn't get the completion box. What's up? And is there a way to skip past a puzzle? Thanks.

Sorry, I don't own those puzzles. I do have the house pets puzzle which is shaped like a house. It fits between the wires, but has to be turned at it's longest point to do so.

This isn't a puzzle type of game. It's not like... Hey figure this out to move on. This game doesn't even fit in any game category, it's more of a category on its own. You play as the character and have objectives to do. Whether you do them or not will decide your factor in game ending. There's over 20 endings to the game.

I think the two are very similar although iQ twist uses pieces in shapes that do make fitting into the design very challenging and fun...even for adults.

I loooove these puzzles! They are great gifts for teens and adults. It makes giving money as a gift fun!! There are instructions on how to insert the money but I do not recall it coming with instructions on how to solve the game. Try one out. You'll be surprised how much entertainment it can bring to a roomful of adults, haha! I purchased two; one for a 12 yr old and one for a 14yr old. Good luck!!

I didn't see the item with the two different puzzles. The item I purchased showed the one unit with the $100 bill. Don't know how they are dealing with the two items.

Same game, but they have different answers. I have both, and we have exhausted the Scrabble branded game just from playing it so much. We just purchased the "Electronic Catch Phrase" and it has all new answers.

not possible to fix puzzle without loking at the code numbers printed behind each piece, that said, it is not challenging nor fun to fx it this way. I bought it thinking we can do it few times. After the furst fix, it left it as-is.Didnt even bother to use the stand. The circular dome plate, serves better to study the globe from all round.

I gave one to my 12-year-old grandson last year, and he solved it within a half hour, so way too easy for him. I would think a child between 6 and 10 would probably enjoy it the most. It needs to be somewhat difficult for them, or it won't hold their attention. It was a lot of money for 1/2 hour entertainment.

The puzzle is in 4 bags, each a quarter of the puzzle. I read where someone combined all four bags to make it more challenging....that is just crazy!

Just the two smaller one's come out. I must say it is well worth it. When you are through with your puzzle, just zip it and put it away for another day :)

Yes.. But its only the words that you can see. The island is hardly visible. I find that the puzzle doesnt align exactly. So you can expect words and graphics to be not be continuous.

It's kind of like a crossword puzzle without words. You try to get strings of 6 tiles in a row that are either the same color or same shape.

I think qwirkle cubes is better because you have the option to roll the cubes to better your points. Everyone playing can see what you have and that is different from regular quickly where you can stand up the squares to hide them from the other players.
