Cross & Glory - Deep Blue Octopus Odyssey - 1000 Piece Puzzle for Adults | Best New Marine Artwork Ocean Puzzles | Unique Brain Teaser Octopus Puzzle

This 1000-piece puzzle was such a joy to work on! The pieces are sturdy, well-cut, and fit together perfectly—no peeling or bent edges like you sometimes get with other brands. The printing quality is sharp and vibrant, which makes the finished picture look stunning. I also appreciated that there was no “false fitting”—each piece only goes where it truly belongs. It made the whole experience smooth, challenging, and fun. Definitely a puzzle I’d recommend for anyone who loves quality and detail!

Pieces are well made and go together nicely. No pieces were stuck together prior to assembly. The colors are bright crisp and clean. There is enough variation in shapes to not be frustrated in areas of similar color, and subtle enough to keep it interesting. The pieces were cut cleanly and thick enough that even my 4 year old was able to easily attach pieces and separate them without damage if they didn’t fit. Cross and Glory is now one of my favorite puzzle companies and I have 2 more of their puzzles on the way!

Second or third purchase from this company--another winner! This particular puzzle is difficult but not impossible. I'm starting to like this company more and more because of its variety of eye-catching designs.

Love this puzzle! Bright and fun to put together. Well made, pieces fit in place and don’t move. Just the right amount of challenge. Love the art.I listened to an audiobook of Remarkably Bright Creatures - great combo.

I am working this puzzle now - very challenging but I recognized that it would be when I purchased it. Picture quality is perfect, beautiful colors. I am enjoying it.

The puzzle is well made. In addition, the pieces are designed so that the sides of adjacent pieces are of equal length. This helps when looking by shape. The rich colors stand out.The image appears to be AI generated. It looks cool, but it doesn’t seem much effort was put into it. An octopus doesn’t have 10 legs. The sporadic text, made to appear as Latin, is gibberish. The creatures around the border are nonexistent. I appreciate that it is a fantastical image, but it just seems a bit lazy.I’d still consider buying another Cross & Glory puzzle.

Beautiful puzzle, vibrant colors, great quality therefore I was willing to pay more than usual but when I put it together a piece was missing. I contacted the company as they said they replace missing pieces and I definitely wanted to keep the puzzle. They responded quickly and offered me a discount on another one but it has been over a month since they said they would be sending it. No follow up emails or approximate arrival date. Now it is too late to return.UPDATE: This company reached out to me and offered a full refund for the purchase even though the window to return had passed. Thank you Cross and Glory!

Love this puzzle. I work for a company that has an ocean themed corporate imagery, and having this in the background of my office invites several comments on the artwork - and are surprised when I reply that it’s a puzzle my wife and I put together.Highly recommend getting some mounting paste and getting it mounted as a display piece. Very challenging to put together due to the gradients and piece count but super rewarding when it’s finished.
