The Puzzle Solver: Christmas Gifts for Puzzle Lovers

Gifts for People Who Love a Challenge

Some people finish the crossword before breakfast and still want more. These gifts swap another puzzle book for real-world brain teasers, and they sit within our wider range of Christmas gifts for every kind of personality. They work for friends, families and couples who enjoy beating the clock together.

Escape Rooms, Treasure Hunts and Mysteries

The classic choice is an escape room, where a team has an hour to crack codes and find the way out. App-based city games turn a familiar neighborhood into a trail of clues, and mystery picnics send couples on a hunt that ends with a picnic set up in a surprise spot. Murder mystery dinners and live game shows round out the range, and new puzzles and themed rooms are added regularly, so even seasoned solvers can find a fresh challenge.

A Gift for Every Occasion

Puzzle experiences make a fun group outing for a birthday, a team-building treat for a graduation crew or a festive plan for Christmas week. Send the gift as an instant e-voucher in minutes or as a printed gift box with a card to hand over in person.

Are puzzle experiences suitable for families with kids?

Many escape rooms and city games welcome younger players with an adult, and some rooms offer easier themes for families. Check the age guidance on each listing before you buy.

How many people do you need for an escape room?

Most rooms suit groups of two to six, so they work for a date night as well as a group of friends. Larger groups can often book two rooms side by side and race each other.
