WOODEN.CITY Treasure Chest Puzzle Box for Adults – 3D Wooden Puzzles Mystery Box Brain Teaser & Escape Room Game with Secret Opening (165 Pieces, Gift Idea)

Epic! It was a lil hard to figure out but my genius arse hubby figured it right out. I love that it has multiple things you have to do to open it! And my husband LOVED building it! Super cool! Highly recommend

All the Wooden city puzzle boxes are a fun challenge to assemble. Great design and engineering.

I would love to give this 5 stars. It is ingenious and complex. But there are a few issues. First, it took me nearly 4 hours to assemble, and some of the mechanisms required me to ask my wife to literally lend a hand to hold pieces in place while I got everything lined up just right and clicked together. Second, the story is a little difficult to interpret as far as how to connect it to the puzzle box. It definitely could be clearer. Third, the pictures and text are difficult to see. They are laser etched into the wood, and some of them are definitely easier to see than others. They should be in a bold font. Fourth, some of the mechanisms are very finicky. Even once you have the puzzles solved, things do not always lock/unlock as they should. The biggest problem is probably the puzzle on the top of the chest. Some circles are supposed to be in an up position and others in a down position. However, the circles will not stay up on their own. You either need three people working on it at the same time (which is very tricky given the small size), or you need to use something to help hold the circles in the up position (I used little balls of paper jammed under the circles). So, while I do recommend this for people who enjoy puzzles and escape rooms, just be forewarned that it could be frustrating for both the person assembling it, and the person trying to crack the puzzles and open it.

Bought as a gift for my husband. He loves it! He likes tinkering and really enjoyed putting this together. Then following the story to open it.

I enjoy building things, and cute riddles/escape room/puzzle boxes have always been a passion of mine. The pieces are well cut. It’s a solid 4-6 hour build for an adult. Children below 12-14 would not be able to assemble. My biggest complaint however is the story. I bought this for my 8 year old thinking it looked cute. The story has nothing to do with the box, does not give you clues, and half of the time things don’t line up properly nor latch properly due to wood on wood. And a lot of mechanical failures. If you’re making it as a gift, one gift card fits, barely and you have to mess with it. Also write your own story because the one it gives is worthless. There’s a seperate “cheat” page that does tell you what to do how to open and close, but the explanations don’t make sense.

I thought this was a really cool idea for my wife who loves escape rooms and puzzles. While it is nice looking in finished product, the actual puzzles only work somewhat. Also a very lackluster story with little to no connection to the puzzles other than it being pirates, and this a chest. The assembly took 4 hours, with a lot of tiny pieces. It was actually fun to put together, but definitely do it in a quiet environment because the pieces are small and there are very few replacement parts if something breaks or is lost. When it came time to give it to my wife, I read the story (took 30 seconds) and my started messing with it. Even in the instructions it's not clear on the order the puzzles are supposed to be solved, so she went for it. Due to some of the locking mechanisms not working properly, she was able to pull the sword free without actually doing the puzzle. We both looked at it afterword and aren't sure if ours was defective or what but the sliding mechanism just wouldn't function. She only had to figure out 2 more littlenpuzzles messing around with it for a second and she was done... 4 hours of assembly, for about 3 minutes of puzzle solving. She said she loved it and it was fun, but both of us definitely felt a bit let down. Summary - cute and fun idea that takes a very long time to assemble and is not an easy assembly, for a very minimal return on the fun at the end. Don't know if I can recommend this.

A very easy assemble but now it is tricky!!

These are great puzzles a little smaller in size than I expected. Christmas gift so I haven’t seen how it works yet

Fun búild, patience needed, good little puzzle box

Box arrived in a timely manner. Once I opened it I did find some of the pieces had separated from the stencil grids they come in so I had to be extremely careful during assembly to ensure the proper pieces went into their proper spots, It was fun to assemble and the concept is pretty cool. As for solving the escape room part it is not so difficult as I know all the tricks after assembling. 3 hours to assemble is fair. Think I am going to gift this with a surprise inside.

Nach dem Aufbau etwas wackelig und seitlich macht sich leicht auf, obwohl nicht benötigt wird. Aufbauen ist etwas anspruchsvoll. Außerdem ist hier eher Spaß beim Aufbauen vorrangig. Die Geschichte und Hinweise spannend, allerdings bei so feinen Bauweise auch moderater Widerstand bei inkorrektem Vorgehen führt zu Brüchen (z.B. das Schwert ging nach zwei Drehungen kapput). Die Austauschteilen sind jedoch dabei.

Bel prodotto... Bello il montaggio e divertente rompicapo!

beau puzzle, le montage est bien montré par des images , le seul problème pour les réglages c'est en anglais et je ne le comprend pas !! domage Colis bien emballé, arrivé dans les temps imparti, super pour un cadeau je recommande.
