I want to get each Krypt design for my puzzle loving Nibling. I know the black and the silver will fit her aesthetics but I'm not sure how gold or rainbow gradient will so I may get a custom color for that puzzle cut for her. What a wonderful option! Can you put a bug in Ravensburger's ear for a 4th cut with holographic puzzle pieces? or an image where you look at it from one angle its one color and another its another color?

y'know what might be fun to do? Mix the pieces of two of these Krypt puzzles together, and then assemble the two puzzles with all the pieces facing down! (no peeking!) At then at end, you can flip the finished puzzles over and see the patterns that emerge!

Love this idea

It's cute watching Karen's mental gymnastics during this puzzle as she flips from "I hate this puzzle!" to "This isn't very hard" to "This will take me weeks" to "I might finish this in just 6 hours" to "The cut really helps" to "This cut is surprisingly tricky" etc etc

Who would have thought you would go from "never again" to solving it three times in one video? What a journey! I love when you swap puzzle pieces with the same cut. The gradient and pink puzzles look so pretty together.

Yoooo. We solved the black crypt puzzle and then used it as our wedding guestbook! I could totally see other people using the custom colors to do the same thing for special occasions like that! Super cool.

OMG right?? Loved it!

At 8 hours per puzzle, for all the HEX colors it’s just 15 millennia of continues puzzling. I’m sure you’d get faster halfway through them. Great work on the Pink puzzle, and loved you on Tom Scott’s new podcast. You had a great Lateral thinking question.

I did the silver Krypt a couple of weeks ago. It took about 40 hours of puzzling time, which of course sounds crazy, but I am not a puzzler! So I'm very proud to have finished it at all. Especially considering I didn't use any kind of guide. I specifically chose to not even LOOK at the pattern. Also I had NO room to spread out many of the pieces, as I live in a tiny unit and don't own a table 😂 Edit: OMG yes, I had a few false fits in the silver. Very annoying. Some fit *perfectly* where they shouldn't have.

Ahh I'd been looking forward to seeing that gradient krypt come together for a while!! Super cool video. And, just for the record, I actually do prefer it when you're doing puzzles you like instead of puzzles that exasperate you

I like how Karen keeps it real. We all can relate....that's why I love her channel...that and her laugh :)

A side note: The metal box that the custom crypt puzzle uses looks amazing!

I always hated puzzles growing up, but this channel has really changed my mind. I love doing online puzzles now, and I really want to get my first physical, real puzzle soon. The gradient krypt puzzle seems like such a good option, I just wish it didn't have that weird rectangle shape interrupting the spiral! Either way, I'm so excited. Thank you for guiding me to a new hobby, Karen!!!

You were on Lateral this Friday!!! You kicked butt as I knew you would if you ever went on. Way to go... making us puzzlers proud! Also, not sure who I envy more... you getting to hang with Tom or Tom getting to hang with you. Two of my favorite brains interacting together. Also, the gradient Krypt was one of the gifts I got around the holidays. I'm so excited for it!

There is in fact a fourth krypt cut now! It's 881 pieces, and so far exists only as a glow in the dark starry sky print, called "Universe Glow". Also there is a version of "silver" (654 pieces), called "Color Spiral" or "Colorful Spiral". It's a shame to hear the custom colour krypts are only "gold", it's my least favourite cut. (the gradient version is an exception ofc) Silver feels like the easiest to me, and i enjoy black the most. Pink

@KarenPuzzles

Yes, I need to get that one!

What I love about this video is watching Karen get more and more excited about the puzzle as the day went on. It’s so apparent that she filmed after the sun went down which she doesn’t prefer doing since sunlight is better.

I gasped when you did the piece swaps between the pink and gradient puzzles! Wow! Sooo pretty and such a cool Timelapse ✨

Funny, i attempt all krypt puzzles like you did with the pink one. Sort the pieces like you did, start with the center until it's not going anymore and switch to the edge. But i go back and forth multiple times in the process. 😄 So cool that you can order krypt puzzles in your favorite color now...I'm actually tempted 🤗 also i love love love the gradient krypt, so beautiful 🥰 i solved it twice so far

I'm not really a puzzler but the Krypt puzzles look fun and their cut is just so different. And I agree that it is a puzzle that would look great in a frame hanging on the wall. Only thing I dislike is that you can't type in the hex codes to get the colour you want. The colour selector Ravensburger uses right now is just too imprecise for me to get the perfect colour that matches my walls... And if you can use hex codes it's easier to share colours like the PINK you used in the video.

I really enjoy spending Sunday morning with you! I love your authenticity so much! Thank you for sharing your love hate relationship with puzzles with us! This pink one nearly got you, but I’m so glad you survived 😅😂 In fact, now I’m intrigued to get one in purple for my office ❤

The mix & match timelapse WAS SO SO SO STAISFYING. The Pink & gradient was super cute. Well done.

I love taking puzzles with the same cut and making art with them. I’ve only been successful enough to want to keep them once, and they’re on my wall right now. Pro-tip: if you get cheap puzzles and you don’t care about being able to do them again, duct tape is a great backing. It’s strong but flexible, so the puzzle can be easily moved from place to place without fear of damage. I moved across continents by just putting the puzzles in the bottom of my suitcase - no issues.

Sundays with Karen are so cozy 😌

With these I think it'd be pretty helpful to start with some color sorting

i love what you did with the gradient and the pink krypt puzzles ! just that has me so tempted to get the gradient and a solid color one to make something like that to hang up somewhere

Favorite puzzle vid ever !🥰 Thanks, Karen!!

Karen, you have rekindled my love of puzzles. So thank you. 😊

Wow! They look amazing mixed, especially the pink and gradient ones!!❤️❤️❤️

That was brilliant to see you tackle this after having only recently watched your first Krypt solve! You tackle all these puzzles so expertly. Great work, and I love your custom Pink one.

Always fun to see a "follow up" video :) glad you enjoyed solving these more this time around! I don't think I would buy or solve these particular puzzles - I have literally the opposite taste in puzzles (loving landscapes and animals), but your enthusiasm about puzzles in general is so inspiring. Pink puzzles for the Barbie movie sounds fun, or maybe a barbie puzzle collab with children in some way?

I hope the piece in the middle is called "the turtle" piece cause it's so cute! 🐢

I collect the same puzzles as you do, and I thoroughly enjoy the experience and challenge of them. Now I can buy more at my convenience in the future. Also, I understand that Ravensbuger is coming out with a neon green one this month. Thank you very much for the information Karen. I enjoyed watching you solve the pink puzzle today. I appreciate your love for puzzles, as I love solving them as well. Take care and keep those happy thoughts.

Not a chance BUT absolutely LOVED watching you ❤ i already forgot the code word but I always listen to the end . Some times several times. I'll definitely be watching this again. Thanks for all the fun

You can do anything if you put your mind to it!! Thanks for sharing karen!!😁

You are such a delight!!!!!! I love your attention to detail, creativity, humor and enthusiasm for everything puzzle-related. And pink is my favorite color so i loved spending a half hour looking at my favorite tone of pink

I love how you mixed the Pink with the Gradient Krypton puzzle!! I would hang them on the wall side by side with one “vertical and the other landscape” (I am sure that I am using the wrong wording). I love abstract art in any medium as you can hang the art in what speaks to the individual!! I love your pink!! I really dislike pastels but I really do like this pink!!!

I am so grateful I think I could cry that you did what I was hoping for the entire video and actually swapped different pieces from different color sets ❤

Something puzzling this way comes ! Great video, and I absolutely love the puzzle art you did and would absolutly hang it as home decor. Anyway Im glad you made it all rainbow and Pink

Ugh, single-colored puzzles give me anxiety. Watching you solve it fills me with joy. Thank you=)

Omg that effect at the end 29:00 something is awesome!!!!!! Pink. I’m never doing this though hahaha. I’ll stick to puzzles with an actual image on them 😂

I loved this. The stop motion with the two puzzles at the end was amazing. I couldn’t do the PINK but I might try the gradient. Loved it.

What a fun video! Thanks, Karen!

Nice! I have had the gradient one for a while and got the original PINK one for Christmas, looking forward to attempting that. If I got a custom one, it would have to be a deep purple one. I looked it up, the human eye can distinguish around a million different colours! I think you would need more storage!

The mixing both puzzles was a great idea! I loved that part of the video

Love how you can mix and match the pieces.

I loved the clips from years ago, it's great to see how much you've evolved as a puzzler. 🙂

I'm so happy you're doing the gradient crypt! I think its genuinly one of my favorite puzzles I've done. Cant wait to see what you think!

The blue/teal versions of this look terrifying because the front is almost the same color as the back 😅 I suppose there is a perfect-match hex value that would make this puzzle MUCH more difficult than it already is.

While it bothers me that the lines don't line up on the gradient/pink combo puzzle, I still appreciate you doing it! My favorite color is chartreuse so I would get one of those. But it might hurt my eyeballs. 😂

Oh my god. You could make such awesome designs with these. I love the 2-tone ones you did with the gradient. I could get crazy with them. LOL

I hadn't considered doing one of these, but this last mix and match shot makes me really want to! Also, it would look epic in a frame! 💯💯💯

That 🌸pink🌸 colour is so soothing and pretty! Doing the classic black Krypt is a bucket list puzzle for me, but I'm so tempted to get a soft, dusty seafoam custom now...

Well done Karen. Mixed ones looked great too. You are an inspiration to us all.

Wow. It is so fun to watch you play around with the puzzles after you are triumphant.

I love the color swap! Such a fun set of puzzles and a really fun pink color

I've been waiting for a video like this The krypt video always was so funny to me with hindsight

Karen: i havent eaten lunch and im so hungry, it is also dark outside so the lighting isnt as good Karen: *gets distracted* Karen: back to the puzzle Me: werent you gonna stop, eat and continue tomorrow?

I love this puzzle cut so much 💖 you could, if you wanted to, separate the puzzle into the 3 rectangles it consists of and then glue those elements together seperately. So basically you end up with two empty rectangles and one solid one. You could use the two empty ones as frames for drawings. I think I might get one of the krypt puzzles and do exactly that, I'm immediately getting a flash of inspiration

I just love everything about this channel 😍

Me here, still very curious about what happened with the orange puzzle. Was the save file corrupted ? 😢 Also great work. It’s beautiful. I’m so happy we’re back to videos every Sunday. Curious if you got the latest lazels puzzle, they posted on Instagram today.

The gradient krypt puzzle was one of my favorite puzzles to put together. I worked on it from the inner circle out and it was so satisfying. I have also done the silver krypt puzzle, and shamelessly heavily relied on the key. I will probably not do another krypt puzzle, pink or otherwise, unless there is something special about it.

why is such a simple video so awe-inspiring? The editing and music are wonderfully perfect

Now that was fun to watch 😊. I love how much fun you have by doing the thing you love the most (and living from it 😉). You deserve it. I bought so many puzzles because of you 😅. I would definetly get a blue one (like royal blue, periwinkle or cornflower) or a purple and mauve one. PINK! 🌸

Love the pink…. Thanks for sharing!

My childhood room is painted in lime highlighter green. This is perfect.

You should totally frame and hang those combined puzzles! It would make a little space on your shelves, you'd get to enjoy looking at them while doing other puzzles, and it would just make your studio look colorful and amazing.

It's been fun to see your journey from hating solid colour puzzles to being a solid colour puzzle connoisseur. I'm curious how you think the krypt series stacks up in difficulty compared to other solid colour puzzles you've done.

If you got every single color, you could make your own gradient puzzle. You could make a few 😂

I normally watch your videos on my ‘phone but I’m cat-sitting for someone and thus watching this one on a seventy-inch television. So glad I am as it’s beautiful. The shapes are so great as well as the colours. And sorry for whatever went wrong but I’m glad it did. I hate orange but love pink. I’m writing this just as you’re about to start and it will be much nicer to watch.

I have the rainbow krypt on my wish list. Now I may need a soft yellow one too. The PINK is lovely too, though.

Love this Krypt idea

What would be truly evil is getting on with the exact shade as the Backing paper

The last part must have been so tedious and taken a long time to film - not only you have to dig through each puzzle piece, but reattach it, then edit the footage, really appreciate the effort. Turns out beautifully.

We're in Austin tx and finally got our power and internet back! This is the first thing I've watched on my TV all week. Loved it!! 🥺

Fun video! Pink would not be the color that I would choose, but you did a good job! You could get 4 puzzles and make "camo color".

I’ve literally just finished the gradient crypt puzzle! And now you upload a video doing the same!

When I was a kid, I had a round puzzle that I put together so many times that I started putting it together from the backside.

I had been thinking about getting one of these but watching the trouble you had with them I'm not getting one now. Thank you for the video. 👍

The two mixed puzzles at the end looked amazing! Definitely worthy of hanging up a wall :D

I bought the Krypt puzzle because of this video, the gradient. It was so beautiful, had to give it a try.

Having the mixed gradient and pink (where you had the two puzzles alternated) side by side or on opposite sides of the room would be really neat.

Oh man, now I want to get the black crypt + the gradient crypt puzzles and mix them like you did! Or alternatively, black + gold ❤🤩

This video was so PRETTY 💖

I've found that working them from the outside in works te easiest. 😊 I love your videos!

The satin finish on the black Krypt puzzle gives me headaches with light reflection, so I’m glad you mentioned these ones are matt finish. Thanks Karen! I have to do the black one face-down, not that it makes much difference on a single colour puzzle!
