“The Rolls Royce of Wooden Jigsaw Puzzles” -Smithsonian Magazine, 1990
Tormentor puzzles are deviously designed by a sadistic Stave artist to push you out of your comfort zone. Your challenge is to make order out of chaos as you battle wits with piles of pieces that are intentionally the same color or shape. There are no 2-way tricks or fancy frames, but lots of Stave trickery to cause you anguish, misery, and torment. These puzzles are not for the faint of heart, but if you're up for the challenge, they can be extremely rewarding. With each successful solution, you'll feel a sense of satisfaction and accomplishment that is well worth the torment. So, if you're looking for a real brainteaser, add a tormentor puzzle to your collection and unravel its secrets.
