The tricky jigsaw puzzle shoppers say is 'addictive'

We're now at the stage of lockdown where jigsaw puzzles are considered a wild weekend activity.

If you've completed every puzzle in the attic and are now shopping for a new one, you might want to give this one a try.

Be warned though - once you get started, you might not be able to step away.

The Amazon reviews almost unanimously describe it as addictive, with people also labelling it challenging and satisfying.

For those of you who have a tried-and-tested jigsaw sorting technique, you might want to throw all your usual methods out of the window.

This puzzle has no straight edges, no corners, and no pattern to help you get started.

It is instead a completely circular jigsaw, with just a colour gradient to help you work out what goes where.

The end result is a brightly-hued colour wheel.

There are 1000 pieces to the circular puzzle - and to make life a bit easier, half of the pieces have 'A' or 'B' printed on the backs.

The game is suitable for ages seven and over and is currently on sale at Amazon, reduced in price to £13.99.

And if you think that's too easy, there's also this solid colour jigsaw to really give you a challenge.
