Yankee Ingenuity - Tavern Puzzle

This is a wonderful tavern puzzle! I’m still working on removing the ring. I like it because I can pick it up whenever I like and try to get it undone. It’s fun!

Bought this for my husband for Christmas. He is addicted to these puzzles. This one was a little easier for him. But he loves it cuz he can show it off to his buddies

It has been great fun to watch my son try to solve this puzxle. It is well made and lives up to the company's press.

I was never fast at other puzzles like this. But it's good for the brain.

I love this puzzle, the first of many to come! I bought this for my puzzle fanatic friend. My only complaint would be that it was far too easy for her. She solved it in less than one minute! Still gorgeous, though--very well made!

This was given as a gift

Gift for someone who really enjoyed it

Chances are that if you're going to order a tavern puzzle then you enjoy a good challenge. The replay value is limited per puzzle, so you'll want to either go with a more moderate challenge (one of their easier puzzles, grouped 1-5), or one of the more difficult ones that will take longer to solve. Yes, this is a chain puzzle, and so provides more difficulty (the chain is able to bend and form knots unlike the straight metal pieces, thus making the solution more complicated). But it's far from their most ingenious design; in fact the 'trick' to the solution is strikingly similar to that of their puzzles 'Double Trouble' and 'Matched Set'. If you want to truly give yourself a good challenge, go with any of the other three Group 8 puzzles (Sneaky Pete, Freedom's Ring, or Patience), as they're all more difficult and have better solutions. Overall this is a good puzzle if you're looking for one that's a bit of a challenge, but I'd definitely recommend one of the aforementioned Group 8 varieties if you're limited in what you can afford.
