Mr Puzzle - We've got puzzles!
Least Difficult Puzzles First, so if you want a very hard
puzzle start at the bottom of this page... Click on a photo to go directly to a more detailed information
page about that puzzle. Rating puzzles in order of difficulty is a very subjective.
Everyone has different abilities when it comes to puzzle solving,
but we've attempted to give relative difficulty ratings based
on a combination of our own experience and watching others solving
puzzles. Click here for more explanation
of how we rate puzzles for level of difficulty.

We sell mostly mechanical puzzles but also stock jigsaw puzzles and some other puzzling items. Mostly we have wooden puzzles, although you will find many other puzzles including cast puzzles, other metal puzzles, even ceramic items.
These puzzles are sometimes referred to as mechanical puzzles, brain teasers, 3d puzzles, mind benders, one person games, or just plain wooden games or wooden toys. In fact in languages other than English 'head breaker' is often the literal translation. Puzzel or legpuzzel in Dutch, Pussel in Swedish are probably the closest to English but the French call them Casse-Tete, in Spanish it's Rompecabezas, the Germans usually say Geduldsspiel and the Hebrew words Hidat Shihzur is literally translated as Restoration Puzzle.
Many of our puzzles are often referred to as 'Chinese' puzzles (the generic term for puzzle in Mandarin is written Zhiliyouxi, literally meaning: "Intelligence Game") or Japanese puzzles (puzzle in Japanese is pronounced pazuru), or Rubiks puzzles. In fact these puzzles rarely originate in China and only one of them is of the Rubik style however certainly many modern day puzzles have been invented in Japan like the Pandora's Box and the Hanayama cast metal puzzles sold on this site.
On this site you will find many original wood and metal puzzles by Mr Puzzle, very difficult puzzles, as well as classic well known puzzles and brainteasers. We will have included details about the inventor and whatever history we know about each puzzle on the Presentation card which is packaged with it.
We sell high quality jigsaw puzzles with Australian themes and the new photomosaic puzzles as well. The only crossword puzzles or logic puzzles we sell are printed on our puzzle cards.
