Who doesn't love Harry Potter? We were quickly attracted by the theme. There are 12 mini puzzle games in this story. We really enjoyed the artwork being that it's a free game. Even though printing is not necessary, there's an option provided so you can plan your own puzzle competition at home! Self guided hints are available in the game and we enjoyed going down the memory lane and ended up binge watching the entire series of Harry Potter again!

Game: Back to the Present

Genre: Pop Culture

Date Played: 4/3/2020

Difficulty (based on 2 players): 5/10


We enjoyed the added sounded track that you can use while playing this game. It reminded us of 80s video games and we loved one of their physical rooms called "8-Bits" which is that type of theme. Once again there are 12 mini games each with a 80s movie themed puzzle. There are some classics in there that we would definitely watch again. These mini games usually took us about 10-15min to complete so if you don't have time during the day for 1-2 hour puzzles, these definitely can scratch that itch.

Game: The Great Gnome Rescue

Genre: Fantasy

Date Played: 1/12/2021

Difficulty (based on 1 player): 4.5/10


"The Great Gnome Rescue" was so much fun to play. Although it was designed as a "kid-friendly online puzzle game", there were some challenges in there to keep you sharp! The story starts off with 2 gnomes - Gnolan and Gnancy and their mission is to try to open up Escape Room Herndon for the day. Little do they know, they are about to embark on a journey (with your help of course),

filled with all kinds of obstacles in a fantasy world full of quests and adventure!
