Customer ReviewsNot exatcly what I expected
Rating Point :4 Helpful Point :0
I expected to learn how to solve riddles. This book does offer a lot of riddles. What makes it unique though is its wide range of different type of mind bending puzzles. It is quite the challenge and worth the buy.

Simply Innovative
Rating Point :5 Helpful Point :3
Unlike many puzzle books out there, this one contains all original and never-before-seen puzzles only. A treat the most avid puzzle fans may expect from any book by the Grabarchuk family of puzzle designers.

108 entertaining puzzles with detailed solutions from a diverse range of disciplines: Visual problems, mind benders, coin/matchstick puzzles and word challenges. A significant number of puzzles also include unexpected tricks to be discovered.

Simply innovative, and not-so-simple indeed.

Great Puzzle Book
Rating Point :5 Helpful Point :3
These puzzles are highly original, and quite different from what you find in most puzzle books. I was impressed with the large variety of challenges presented. Why do word puzzles all day when you can cross train your brain with spatial, math, visual, and logical problems? This book has them all. The illustrations that accompany each puzzle are also very nice. Get your thinking caps on, though-these highly enjoyable puzzles are "Not-So-Simple"!
