Scramble Squares: Tropical Fish Review
Scramble Squares - Tropical Fish is an absorbing little puzzle that's harder than it looks. Nine square pieces show colorful images of all different kinds of tropical fish--all ending abruptly at the edges. You must try to arrange the squares in a 3x3 grid so that every half-image matches its other half on all adjacent squares.
Scramble Squares has earned the Dr. Toy 10 Best Educational Products Award.

Dive into the coral reef with this colorful version of the Scramble Squares challenge. Easy to Play, but Hard to Solve is the motto for this deceptively simple-looking puzzle. By the time you've become addicted and find yourself unable to solve the thing, you'll realize it's not so much a motto as a warning. Nine colorfully illustrated cardboard 4-by-4-inch squares depict various unfinished images of butterflyfish, clown triggerfish, Moorish idol, and Potter angelfish along their edges. The images must be matched and the nine squares arranged in a larger square. An ingenious, elegantly executed puzzle idea, Scramble Squares will have you simultaneously blessing and cursing its inventor. --Claire Dederer
