Wasgij Destiny 170 Years of Jumbo! - 1000 Piece Jigsaw Puzzle

Street parties have always been a great way to mark a big occasion! Family, friends and neighbours are all making sure the kids have plenty to eat and plenty to play with. Jumbo has been there longer than granddad can remember. Long before the 1978 royal warrant he’s reading about in his newspaper. The same families have got together to mark 170 years of Jumbo. But what games and puzzles have caught the next generation’s imagination? What are the special treats and surprises crowding the table, and how are they celebrating today? This is the scene you have to puzzle.

Wasgij, produced and manufactured by Jumbo Games, is the UKs number one adult jigsaw puzzle range. Did you know Wasgij is jigsaw spelt backwards and is pronounced Woz-gidge.

This was not an overnight success story, but a brand which has been increasing in popularity since it first came to market in 1997. The Wasgij range has a different set of rules when it comes to jigsaws, instead of following tradition and asking puzzlers to piece together the same image as that printed on the box, Wasgij truly broke the mould, by challenging puzzlers to use their imagination!

There are four different concepts in the current Wasgij range. They are very different from each other, but with one common theme, the picture on the box is not the picture you will be puzzling!

The first concept, released in 1997, was Wasgij Original, the brainteaser puzzle that requires puzzlers to use their imagination (and a few clues provided) to put themselves in the position of a particular character that appears in the picture shown on the box. Once the puzzler has done this, they need to imagine what that character is looking at in front of them, that is the image they must piece together. The addictive concept is designed to keep the puzzler guessing right up until they have completed the puzzle and is the reason why Wasgij is the brand it is today.

Wasgij Destiny is the Time Travelling concept where puzzlers must use their imagination to piece together what they think the scene and characters shown on the box will look like in the modern day. Wasgij Mystery is the one where puzzlers have to use their imagination and piece together what will happen within the next few minutes to the characters shown in the box image. Wasgij Christmas follows the Wasgij Original concept, where you have to use your imagination to piece together what the characters in the scene printed on the box are looking at.

We stock these very popular 1000 piece puzzles. We endeavour to stock as many of the range as we can, and are always amazed at how quickly any new releases sell. If you want a new challenge, and think you can use your imagination without relying on a box image, this is the puzzle brand for you!
