YBMW 2021 Holiday Gift Guide – Puzzles & Games

Fallout A Busy Day 1000-Piece Puzzle
$19.99 • The Wand Company • Get Yours Now

Just because Fallout is a video game, doesn’t mean you can’t find another way to play with it. For those long winter nights, there’s nothing better than getting a couple of friends, or a spouse for some hot cocoa and a good Jigsaw puzzle. So, if you like Fallout, why not check out the Busy Day 1000-Piece puzzle. Measuring in at almost 30”x20”, this puzzle is challenging, fun, and beautiful. The artwork depicts the busy scene of the showroom at the Flagship Chryslus dealer. The colors are vibrant, the details are intricate, and the puzzle pieces are really well made. This is a great gift for any Fallout fan who appreciates a good puzzle… and isn’t that all of them?

Fallout A Quiet Night 1000-Piece Puzzle
$19.99 • The Wand Company • Get Yours Now

If you’re looking for a Fallout puzzle, but want a different design than the Busy Day puzzle (Why not get them both?), check out the Quiet Night puzzle. While it also takes place on the showroom floor of the Chryslus dealership, this puzzle is set after hours. What we like about it is that all of the darkness of the abandoned building adds a new dimension of difficulty to the puzzle that you don’t get in the Busy Day. No matter which version (or both) of the puzzle that you get, both of these are going to be loved by anyone who finds them under their tree this holiday season.

Super Precision Gyroscope
$96 • Kontax • Get Yours Now

The Gyroscope has been around since 1812, but it still remains one of the coolest examples of physics that you can hold in your hand. Even though gyroscopes have been available since before the first Model T rolled off the assembly line and we now live in a time when tourists are going to space, it’s hard not to marvel as you balance a gyroscope on the tip of your finger and watch it spin. So, if you’re going to get one as a gift for someone this season, get them a great one. The gyroscopes from Kontax are truly great. Along with the precision machining and the beautiful solid brass disk at its center, what makes this gyroscope so special is the included quick-start motor. While most gyroscopes rely on a string to get things spinning, this new motor kicks things up to a blistering 12,000 revolutions a minute. That means this gyro can hit spin times of up to 25 minutes!

Loops Within Loops Puzzle 1000 pcs puzzle
$19.99 • Mchezo • Get Yours Now

Sometimes you give someone a Jigsaw puzzle because they love puzzles and the pretty pictures that they make, but sometimes you also give someone a jigsaw puzzle to test their mettle and see what they’re made of. When that’s your goal, forget about puzzles with pretty scenes or movie posters and go for something like Loops Within Loops. This 1000 pcs puzzle still makes a beautiful image, but it also packs a hell of a challenge as puzzlers are tasked with putting together a repeating pattern with little to no context clues of where to begin or end. It’s devilish, but it’s also a lot of fun and the kind of puzzle where you feel like you’ve really accomplished something when you’re done.

20 Women of Art Memory Game
$18 • Today is art day • Get Yours Now

Some of the most amazing art in history is made by women, but the names that most people know are male artists. We love 20 Women of Art Memory because it’s a fun twist on a classic game that teaches kids about the amazing world of female artists like Frida Kahlo, Mary Cassatt, Artemisia Gentileschi, Berthe Morisot, Tamara de Lempicka, Judith Leyster, Elisabeth Louise Vigée Le Brun and more! If you want a different take on the game of memory that opens a whole world of iconic female artists.

20 Women of Art MEX-Mars A.I. robot Puzzle Cube
$99.95 • X-Mars • Get Yours Now

The Rubik’s Cube is one of the world’s most classic puzzles, but it’s just a plastic cube that you twist around until you get so frustrated that you move the stickers while no one is watching. If you love puzzles or you know someone who does, the EX-Mars is the way to go. This is a puzzle cube that would challenge a Terminator because it’s robotic and uses AI to greatly enhance the puzzling experience. It self-scrambles for you. If you want it to, it can solve itself, or show you when you are screwing up while you try to solve it. It gives you several different types of puzzles and can track your times through the app. It can even help you learn coding through the app. It’s a smart puzzle that makes you smarter. Honestly, this little cube almost has more features than we can mention, down to the fact that it even has musical puzzles in it. Let’s face it, this might be one of the coolest brain-teasing, educational, STEM-friendly puzzles we’ve ever seen.
