About this deal

The first time I was given a Wasgij jigsaw it was a double puzzle. 2 in 1, there’s one bonus puzzle which is the box image along with the normal Wasgij which is one you have to work out how to solve. It totally confused me because I got out the image puzzle first and couldn’t work out why it was easy and the box image. Then I read the box and worked out it wasn’t the main puzzle. Oops. Coronation Street Return to the Rovers 2x 1000 pieces item no. 13566 (Reveal Solution 1) (Reveal Solution 2) If you just want the Wasgij solutions, then scroll right to the bottom and you’ll find a list of all my completed solution posts.

I hate doing these the most because there’s often lots of little people. Look for any colours that might join elsewhere. Step 8: Re sort remaining pieces by shape

Some sections you’ve done might be easy to place. You might struggle with some others. If you’re not sure, remove them from the board to free up space until you know where they go. Just fill in any remaining gaps, until you know where they go. Step 7: Add any people to complete them You don’t want too many piles, but with bigger colour piles you can split them up at the next stage and pull out items within those colours. You can then see the Wasgij coming together. You have to imagine you’re in the picture as one of the characters looking the other direction. What do they see? I find these are usually the hardest puzzles of the ranges. Wasgij Destiny This is the easiest part to put together. If any go next to the edge, then fix them on. If not, you can just put them on the puzzle board, or use a separate tray or board. I start all my ‘small’ sections on my boards, then move them over to the puzzle area when I know more about what might fit where. Step 3: Choose one of the main colours The start point once you’ve worked out which range and theme the puzzle is, is to read the box. Each Wasgij box usually gives you 3 clues – an idea of the perspective of the solution (ie whose view is it), and a couple of locations of small pieces. There’s usually a 4th hint online you can look up.

Start with pieces that are joined to other areas, then the plain pieces. This is where you might want to sort the pieces into puzzle shape in rows. Look for where you have non standard pieces to fit as there’s fewer of these, e.g 3 male or 3 female pieces, or 2 male next to each other.. I do the same sorting for any puzzle. I keep out the edges, and put each pile into sandwich bags. Or you can use boxes (takeaway containers would work well) or these puzzle sorters. Step by step guide to Wasgij solutions Step 1: Complete the edges Then find a large place to do your puzzle. If you do a lot and don’t have the table space to keep a puzzle out, then try getting a Portapuzzle*. They’re invaluable and provide a couple of flat pieces to set out pieces, or do smaller parts of the puzzle. You can buy ones with a handle as well as the basic one. Some people like the roll up ‘felt’ type of material but I didn’t find those very good as they didn’t stay flat. Or get a large thin piece of board you can move around. We used to have one which was thin enough to slip under the sofa even with the puzzle on.Similar to the original range but with a Christmas theme. Often these come with a bonus puzzle of the box image in. How to complete a Wasgij puzzle The 4 Wasgij ranges are Destiny, Original, Mystery and Christmas. Most are 1000 pieces, but you can get mini 150 and 500 piece puzzles. I don’t really do these as I prefer the bigger ones, but the smaller ones can help get your confidence up if you’re new to them. Original Wasgij If you run out of space in the middle of the puzzle for all your completed sections and don’t know where they sit, make use of your sorting boards instead. These puzzles do take a lot of space. Step 6: focus on large plain areas like grass or sky Don’t worry if you’re missing a couple of pieces, you’ll find them. Sometimes you get a long way through but realise you’ve got a couple of edge pieces in the wrong place. Don’t worry, you can fix it later. Step 2: Start with the writing

Wasgij Christmas is the puzzle concept where you must use your imagination and clues provided to piece together not what you see on the box, but what the people on the box see!
