I would definitely have that one in a white frame and put it up on the wall in my hall near the light so that every time I turned it off I get this amazing picture in the dark.

That would really work and look great I think! I am definitely considering hanging my Krypt puzzles, which is why there are all still assembled and waiting! 😍

What a great job!!! I don’t think I could have done it without looking at the back of the box or the key in the envelope. Great job and a great video Vicky!

Thank you Ruth! 😃 It was definitely tough, and I wouldn’t blame anyone for using the guide - the Krypt puzzles are hard for sure. I only managed it with super heavy strategising and organising of the pieces, and believe me, organising is not my natural skill in life 😆

Amazing to see you work this. A job well done! Condensing it into a 30 minute video of pieces going into place makes it look doable!

Thank you so much! That’s the beauty of time lapse as well - always looks so simple! 😃 lol. It was anything but simple 😆

How exciting to see you build this one! I have this myself, and with no prior Krypt experience hearing you say it is probably the most difficult definitely makes me incredibly nervous, haha. You truly have a knack for tackling tough puzzles. Well done! 👏

Thank you! I do have to strategise pretty heavily to finish them, but that isn’t my natural way of puzzling generally - it does feel good finishing these off though. I think the stars on this one make it much more doable, give it a go and I’m sure you’ll be fine - plus there is always the guide if you need it 😊

The glow in the dark looks beautiful. I have the gold one but not attempted yet. I have plenty other puzzles to do. Love your videos Vicky

Thank you! It really is stunning to see it glow - the gold is the only cut I haven’t done in solid colour yet - well, and this one, but this one is the only one of this cut so far. I will try the Think Krypt 2 next, which is the same cut as gold, and a gorgeous blue colour 😍 All the best with your gold Krypt - I hope you enjoy it. Thank you so much for watching and enjoying 😍

Wow, looks amazing and so hard! ☺️🧩

I did this one and it is my favorite Krypt yet! I did it without the guide and sorted out the edges, solid black, heavily star covered, and lightly starry. I just went back and forth between sections whenever I’d get stuck. Enjoyed it the whole time!

Thank you! Pics don’t really do the glow in the dark effect justice, it looks so stunning! I am always intimidated by them, especially by my first one, the pink. I didn’t expect to enjoy it so much though! 😍

I'm not a fan of the krypt puzzles because they are a solid color, however, that one really is a neat puzzle cut. I like the circles and the stars give it some visual interst. I still probably won't get that one but it is neat to look at. :) The only krypt I have is the gradient lol

I can definitely understand being put off by solid colour - I find, with Krypts, that it’s the cut that makes it interesting for me. I think, perhaps, they are the only solid colour puzzles I will do…maybe. I like that there are at lease a couple with visual detail though - this one included. I agree, the cut is really cool on this one 😍

Wow, this looks amazing! Great job! I tried building a Krypt puzzle a while ago but I was not able to finish it. At one point I was so frustrated, I wanted to run away screaming, so I gave it away. (As always: love the puzzle dust art!)😄

I do understand that frustration - I definitely have been frustrated with my Krypts too, but I just really enjoy the challenge. It’s a wonderful feeling when you finish! 😍 I’m so glad you love my dust art - I need to get more creative with it 😃

The excitement when you finished it put a smile on my face as I'd feel that way too I'm sure. I have my first Krypt puzzle coming soon and if it doesn't defeat me completely; I may consider getting another, perhaps this one.

I have the Silver coming and from what I saw on the website that I get a lot of my puzzles from; Ravensburger is no longer going to be manufacturing this one. So if that's the case I'm happy that I was able to get it after grappling with if I was ever going to purchase it or not. I'm looking forward to the challenge!

Yes, I think that’s an older one - I managed to get silver from a charity shop and the box design looks a little different. I hope all the pieces are there 😬

Well done, it looks fantastic as glow in the dark. Not one I would attempt though, too tricky for me xx

Good job Vicky. I’ve done the silver Krypt without the guide and I have the red. I enjoyed doing the silver, you do have this is doing my head in moments but when it’s done it’s a great feeling.

I think that’s a great thing to do 😊 I’m so glad you enjoy my videos - thank you for watching x

Would love to try this one, but they are sold out (Brazil). Loved the stars and the glow in the dark aspect. I did the gold one, it was hard and i didn't sort the pieces at the begging but once I did, it was fine.

@Vickymakesandbuilds

4 ай бұрын

Ah, that’s a shame they are sold out! Hopefully they will restock soon. I would definitely recommend this one, it’s so lovely 🥰 I would agree with you - I think sorting is a must with Krypts, even just a rough one can really help - I don’t think I’d manage them without the guides otherwise 😆 Well done on your gold one. Haven’t tried that cut in solid colour yet! But I will 😃

I have a NY, NY panoramic glow-in- the dark puzzle. The pieces are very chunky. The glow-in-the-dark spots are encrypted, or blended, into the pieces. It looks beautiful in the dark. On the other hand, I had a Seahorses puzzle where the glow spots were on top of the finished pieces and didn’t glow so beautifully. I am wondering how this Krypt puzzle's "glow spots" are made...??

@Vickymakesandbuilds

4 ай бұрын

Honestly I don’t know Betty - they are normal thickness Ravensburger pieces and the glow in the dark bit feels like a rough, textured layer on the top. My guess, therefore, is that they are on top, but I’m not sure I understand what you mean when you say they are encrypted into the pieces, so it’s hard to say. I can say that it glows beautifully though 😍

Congratulations on getting it done Vicky, rather you than me! I have no interest whatsoever in solid colour puzzles although this one did have a touch of colour. I did get a little dizzy when you kept swooping your camera from side to side. 😵‍💫 The glow in the dark was rather spectacular! I recently did a rather vivid puzzle called Cheshire Cat by Clementoni, ref. no. 35123 if you wish to look it up. Look forward to your next video.

Thank you so much! I never thought I’d like solid colour puzzles, but there is something different about the Krypts, I really do like them 😍 Apologies for the camera swooping, this is something I need to fix - when I’m in full explanation mode I forget how much my camera is moving about - I will try to fix that moving forward 😍

😉 All will be revealed in my next puzzle haul! It does look amazing when it’s finished - I think because of the focus on circles, the Krypts have to have wonky pieces, but in a big way, the shapes of the pieces are the key to figuring them out to be honest 😍

I ve never found krypt difficult or understood the fuss about them. You simply start in the middle and work outward. Certainly not the big deal people think they are. It's just a different way of puzzling ie by shape.

That’s wonderful that you find them easy 😊. I know many who don’t though. Working out from the middle is definitely the way forward with them, I agree. Thanks for watching 😍
