zdz Baffle Handheld Puzzle Game

A great puzzle,first remove the marked disc,it has a kind of star patten on it,just pop it off and away you go,for best challenge hand the puzzle to someone else and ask them to scramble it up,when they hand it back get ready for hours of twisting and sliding as you try to get all the colours back as they should be,at first the slide action might be a bit stiff but it will ease up with use,as long as you line up two rows the slide function should be straight forward,if the person who mixed it up did a good job you should be at this for quite a while.when you have completed it try it again but try to beat your previous time,so each time you get it done quicker.or challenge a friend to beat your time.it all adds to the challenge and keeps your mind sharp.

A good alternative to a Rubik's Cube but doesn't really hold a torch in terms of complexity or build quality.There is quite a lot of 'drift' in the pieces and that can lead to a lot of fidgeting the toy to enable parts of it to turn properly even when they appear to be in place. The difficulty of the puzzle is not much greater than your average sliding puzzle and Rubik's afficionados will solve this within a matter of a few hours.

This was bought for me for a Christmas Present to help me with hand dexterity!! Is a lot harder to solve than you think and well worth it if you puzzles!!! 10/10

This is the only of these puzzles on the market. It is fun to play with, but you will have to do a lot of preparation work to loosen up the buttons to make them slide. The first one of these I bought had a batch of buttons that did not slide - but the sellers sent me a replacement, free of charge, and rather quickly, which had worked - though it is still stiff.I have given it 3 stars because it is a good game to fiddle with. I deducted 2 stars as, unfortuantely, it is not free-moving enough for a quick-solver to use. I will still enjoy using this game though, and hope that with time it will loosen up and become easier to use.

Good for time passing and challenging puzzle mix it up then try to get colours in line again have fun

The quality is so poor, you are unable to actually play the game

Great gift for a xmas stocking, all I hope is that it keeps my son busy and gives me a litte bit of a lay in. The product is well made and arrived well packaged. I am looking forward to being allowed to play with it as well over the festive period

This shiny black barrel with brightly colourful smartie shaped buttons you slide around the outside of the barrel looks really fun, but in reality it's a torture device designed to give you severe arthritis in your fingers and leave you feeling extremely stressed and wanting to destroy it - but even the satisfaction of destroying it is taken away from you as its design makes it virtually indestructible unless you throw it in a fire (even then it may refuse to melt and continue to mock you with its existance underneath the ashes.)The pieces have poorly cut edges that often stick and refuse to budge without resorting to bludgeoning it with a hammer. It's also extremely bulky and heavy leaving one to question how was a child supposed to play with one of these. I'm a grown adult and even I have a hard time holding onto it after 5 minutes without getting extreme fatigue in my fingers and wrists and leaving them feeling like they've been subjected to the equivalent of a herd of elephants running over them.Game-wise it's a very simple puzzle to solve, but practically it's extremely difficult to solve taking 5-10 times longer just trying to get the pieces to actually move.
