Why You'll Enjoy It:

Designed by Lucie Pauwels with input from Jakub Dvorak, Broken Frame and Window reimagines 2D packing puzzles by breaking the frame into pieces and adding a central window, as Pauwels notes, for a uniquely challenging experience. Kevin Sadler praises its “brilliant, beautiful, and challenging logical design,” highlighting how restricted piece placements and specific frame gaps make it more than trial and error, though he warns of a deliberate trap that caught him off-guard. Crafted by Pelikan Puzzles in vibrant Purpleheart and Maple, the puzzle’s 14 pieces must fill both the frame and a 5x5 window, with only one of five frame arrangements leaving the correct pieces for the window. Perfect for puzzlers who love logical challenges with a creative twist, Broken Frame and Window is a must-have for any collection.
